Class A tuition is $5,400. Class B is $2,600. Hazmat is $350 plus the TSA fee. No hidden add-ons - the price on this page is the price you pay.
How people pay for it
- Out of pocket
- Payment plans available, no interest, spread across the program length
- Workforce grants and veterans’ benefits
- State workforce development funding and GI Bill / VR&E cover tuition for those who qualify - ask our office to check eligibility
- Company-sponsored training
- A carrier pays your tuition in exchange for a signed commitment to drive for them, usually 12 to 24 months
- Read the contract before you sign
- Sponsored training is a real contract. Leaving that carrier before the term is up usually means repaying the tuition they fronted - we will walk through the terms with you, but we cannot waive them
What you can expect to earn
First-year local Class B drivers in this area run $46,000 to $54,000. First-year Class A regional runs $52,000 to $62,000, home most weekends. First-year Class A over-the-road runs $58,000 to $70,000, and it means nights and weeks away from home - that trade-off is real and we would rather you weigh it now than after you have signed a sponsorship contract. Several regional and national carriers recruit directly from this yard, and our placement office sets up interviews before graduation.
