You're going to end up owing the remaining 25% and you will not get a job driving. You might get a job loading trucks or washing them but not driving. By the time a trucking company and its insurance carrier will consider you your CDL will be "old" and then they won't want you because you have no experience. just trying to warn you, if you don't believe me (or the others) do some research on this forum.

Just add it up to collections!

GPA? You wouldn't know what GPA meant if it snuck up and bit you on the ass!!!

GPA is grade point average and the CDL school is a non credit course. They have job placement and i go in tomorrow for orientation and to find out more info.

CDLINC.........your integrity. (i use that loosely) is compromised even further. This is not a 'recruiting' thread and you are not, and will never be invited. Plenty of you hacks out there. This is an 'old school' board that attempts to help prospective drivers. Not take their money.

Now **** off!!!

Jootgatter!

You seem to be missing everyone's point. Or, you're ignoring them.

No offense to you, but let me be clear.

You have more than two items on your record that will prohibit a carrier from hiring you, drug charges & a recent license suspension.

YOU WILL NOT FIND A JOB DRIVING BIG TRUCKS!

You may find one in a few years, but not any time soon.

Also, you may qualify for financial aid but the people that grant that don't check to see if you're hirable with the trucking companies.

Come up with a new plan because driving trucks won't become a reality for you any time soon.

Google : WIOA Program Texas
This program pays for cdl school, free to you.
TransAm and Carolina Cargo will probably hire you after graduation.

I know thuis thread is a few months old, but for anyone reading this who is also looking for paid cdl training programs there's a really good article that goes in-depth about 21 different company paid cdl training programs.

Yeah, once again.
