By the way, if you have that sort of money, why not just go to Embry-Riddle. BSc program sticker price is $175k. Plus CFI and basic living expenses (like campus accommodation) , study materials, etc.... Looking at $200k+. I never met anyone who has not regretted getting a degree in aviation. What you want to do, is get an F-1 visa, get some academics and get a lot of flight time working as CFI. Get a degree in something else, like engineering or whatever you like. Don't get a degree in aviation!
