Avoid Epic
Hi,
i was working with Epic since the start of their business in 1999 and i have to say no everything looks good as it is presented. few american schools are authorized to conduct PPLs and IRs in USA and no schools are authorized to conduct practical exams or check rides in USA unless of a special permission by JAA with JAA instructor and examiners in loco conducting the flight training (obviously no schools are willing to pay instructor or examiners to stay in USA).
All i'm saying is careful with Epic as you may end up with a good FAA training and no JAA certificates in your hands unless you come back to Europe and especially in UK you can add an extra £20,000 minimum to convert.

Never go to this school !
This school will only take your money and nothing else. They are lying on almost everything !
Never trust a single word of what they say ! Indicated prices are completely wrong ! Answers are lies ! Absolute no structure on the instruction and courses ! They take money from your account for no reason and even with evidences, you have to fight to get your money back. I still waiting my money... ! A lot of mistakes with money (favorable to Epic !!!) Some instructors are really arrogant and they play with students ! And now they are using a new informatics system, completely unuseful for students,but students have to pay it ! This is a instructors and school tool but they don't pay. Only students ! The rooms are really dirty ! You will pay 450$/double and 650$/single. We were 4 students paying 2200$/month for this crap ! The normal rent of this apartment is 1200$ ! Students pay 1000$ more per apartment ! A huge amount of money for the school ! I have so many other examples...
The best advice is really NEVER GO TO THIS SCHOOL ! NEVER !!!
