You best check with the Orlando FSDO
Cross post with mine... I don't think that calling the feds will be necessary - if you are still in doubt after reading the regs (again:
Electronic Code of Federal Regulations:) call the Bristow Academy.
The FSDO people will tell you exactly what I posted above (meet the regs and you are fine) but they will not be able to tell you if you are maybe breaching Visa regulations with one or the other option.
