I've met a few graduates from there but can't say I know much about the program. what's your end goal? Airline pilot? Military pilot? just for fun?

Bottom line with all pilot training schools.... doesn't matter; experience does. Embry-Riddle has a good program also, but all these universities do is give you an education and a pilot's licesense with maybe a few ratings. A liscense and a dollar will get you a beer. A liscense and 1000 of multi-engine time may get you a job.

The military has the best training and is a great way to get the expereince, but that does not appeal to everyone and is pretty selective.

I have several friends in the aviation program at UND, I must say it is a top-notch facility. Aviation is that schools bread and butter. Grand Forks is kind of a boring town, but there is fun to be had there. Good hockey team with the most amazing arena you will ever see!
