I want so badly to get in the field. I've looked into schools. I live about 30 miles south of Pittsburgh. I have no money. I realize I may be able to get financial aide (still owe from many years ago) but that would only concern school. I would need housing while in school, transportation to class and food of course. Do I have ANY options? Any direction would really be appreciated.
Broke but want to drive truck

Many trucking companies hire right off the street if you pass back ground, drug, legal record, etc. They put in their own cdl school. You stay at their school or in the nearby hotel. Then you are bound to work for them a year.

your in what sounds like a bad situation. are you really looking for a job or a quick paycheck?
whats your driving record look like? employment history? are you an alcoholic or on drugs?
go to a trucking company for school, you'll be grilled and if you lie. your gone.
go to the state, waste every ones time and money to find out you don't want to truck?
your options are endless. hope you pick the right one. -
Roehl Transport in Besalem,PA is a good option if you can pass a hair follicle drug test. They pay the cdl student $500.00 weekly while attending classes plus meals & lodging.
All trucking company schools provide transportation, usually by bus, from your city to the school plus meals & lodging.
Here's some more to consider & apply to as many as you like, then take whichever offer you like best:
Contract Freighters Inc. (www.cfidrive.com) - Joplin,Missouri
Jim Palmer Trucking - Missoula,Montana
Jones Bros. Trucking - Missoula,Montana
