My current problem is if i have to pay for school then i cant get a car. In which case PIA is the only truck school within reach by bus for me. have you heard anything good or bad about PIA? But i have heard that pell grants are plentiful for those who qualify. i will give allstate a call and see what they have to offer. I appericiate the info you have given me.
