    They will ask you to drive for them an x amount of time to pay for the schooling. If you complete that time, you owe them nothing.

    Some will make you owe full amount regardless of how close to the agreed date you get. Others Will say reduce the amount owed as you drive. So if you graduated owing 4000 with a 1 year commitment, drive for 6 months and then quit, you owe them 2000, not the full 4.

    Try to get the second option. If it goes south you can probably buy out and get on with another company.

    Yeah I know about the contracts just looking for decent companies that hire out of north Florida that will help with getting my cdl. Trying to avoid getting in with a bad company from the start.
