Thumbs up Flight Training In The UK Or US?

I am currently a final year student at a UK university studying Chemical Engineering. My life long ambition is to become a commercial pilot however I went to university as a career back up.

Looking at the insane prices of CTC wings and OAA flight schools, I am at a disadvantage as most people who want to go into this profession. After speaking to a few people, there seems to be a way of completing your pilot studies from nothing to completion at a much lower cost in the US, with a flight school known as ATP in Florida.

From anyone who has experience or any form of advice/knowledge, would this a good route to go through if I wanted to become a commercial pilot. Ive enquired about their training which at $90,000 gives the complete flying package and able to do the FAA training and ATPL ground school exams back in the UK within the total cost. Any help or advice would be appreciated!
