    Has anybody ever went there? I dont have the money for school, so I see Snhedier hires from there, would they pay for my school up front in exchange for a commitment or what? Im trying to see if any company would pay for it upfront?

    anymore, less and less places are willing to pay up front even with a commitment, im in the same boat as you almost. Im lookin for a place to pay upfront and so far all i got is PAM transport and thats if you agree to stay with them for a year

    Yea, im just curious about them because I stay a hour from them. I plan on going to central refrigerated in utah or millis to get my license, but I see snheider has that school on there preferred list to take students. So if they Sncheider pays upfront in exchange for a year committment I will consider going there. I dont mind doing the year as long as im getting miles and making money the commitment will be in the back of my mind

    Thanks. Im trying to wait around and see if the state(Indiana) gets more money for the WIA grant. I stay 10mins from a good driving school but the state is being cheap and saying the money isnt going into trucking.

    Well don't hold your breathe on that. Michigan is saying the same thing. They want you to get a job in the county that you live in or one of the surrounding ones.
    Yeah, if I could get a job wrking close to home I would have done that already.
