He went to Swift and will be heading out with a trainer this afternoon for his 200 hours of driving time. Out of the companies I have contacted so far they have offered the tuition reimbursement of around 3500, which sucks because the contract for Henderson's school is about 4600 without the 12.5% interest. So it kind of looks like I'm screwed unless Swift can offer me the same deal as he got, but I'm not sure I'll get the same as he is currently in the military for his homestate.

3500 is better than nothing

That is true, but I'm pretty sure they expect it all in 1 payment if your cancel the contract if I remember correctly.

Have you tried to contact Prime? That would be a good way to go since they and Henderson are connected.

They were on my list of companies to contact if this went too long. So far I've talked to Jim Palmer, they offer up to 3500 for tuition reimbursement, Prime I think is only around 1500 I think. I'm not 100% sure but I think if you cancel on the contract and they charge you the amount they expect it in 1 payment instead of over time as it would be if I stay. My thing is right now I don't have ~5k to pay it back all at once.

It's $94.00 a week if you cancel. I talked to Jenny about it before I left for training

Hmm, well at least it isn't all in 1 lump sum. I probably heard it but as you know there was A LOT of information thrown at us. I will keep that in mind if I decide to go elsewhere, but I hope it doesn't come to that.
