My advice would be go tour and check out ANY school you're interested in. Talk to as many people as you can that have attended/are attending them. The more options you have to compare the better, in my opinion. I checked out NTI/UTI, Wyotech, and VC Tech. I ended up going with NTI. I am not going to say I dislike NTI, but I regret not checking out SAM.
You never know though.....I may have thought it better, may not.

I hear SAM is a great school, but isn't it just mainly powerplant theory and machining? I mean how in depth do you want to go with it? A school like UTI or Wyotech gives you the whole spectrum. From air conditioning to hotrod.

Don't go to wyotech unless you are a d-bag or your going for diesel. I live in Laramie, Wyoming and it sucks here, believe me you don't want to go to school here unless your going for diesel.

Thats where i'd go, and theirs women at college (good looking ones at that)
UTI is the biggest sausage fest one can attend.
Now if you want a challenge, try getting into this school

if your really into the entire High Performance field, UNOH is the way to go.
http://www.unoh.edu/academics/colleg...chnology.shtml
we have everything here from hi-po welding/fab to engine class to driveline classes suspension...etc
but if your only into the engines, SAM is the way to go.

Wish I would have went to UNOH instead of Lincoln Tech.
Don't get me wrong, Lincoln was a great school (and close to me) for basic automotive, and the management program is great, but their performance classes are garbage, taught by teachers who don't give a rat's ***. If that's your main focus, I'd ONLY consider UNOH. If engine theory/building is your main focus, I'd go to SAM.
Whatever you do, if a program is offered to obtain an associate's degree, TAKE IT!

UNOH is the way to go. I graduated from UNOH in 08' and though I'm not making it a career, I am VERY satisfied with the education I received. They also offer a bachelors program, and the school is an accredited school. I took my creidts from UNOH and all but maybe 2-3 were accepted at the college I'm attending now for nursing. Spend the extra few months doing the diesel and alt fuels program. That will give you a backup if the fluctuating high performance market is not working out for you.
agreed. This weekend I'm helping one of my instructers swap a 302 into his faielabne wagon. Honestly I can't see getting this kind of 1 on 1 time anwhhere else but UNOH. The most you will ever have in class is 20 ppl at a time. It's awesome.
