Question: Aviation University please answer?

I'm thinking about enrolling in Everglades University in Sarasota FL to major in aviation flight science yet I have doubts about that school since it's really new. They say that I can finish a masters degree in 14 months and what I really like is that it's a lot cheaper than Embry Riddle. I was thinking about Embry Riddle but it doesn't really fit my price range, so does anybody know if Everglades Univ is any good? BTW since FL has good weather conditions at times, is it wise to go to school there in the first place since I heard training in worse weather conditions is better for the record. In college board embry riddle is $27,000 not $14,000

Looking at their website, I'm pretty sure that the masters degree is 14 months of education AFTER completing your undergraduate degree. Flight training in worse weather is not desirable. All it's really going to do is slow down your training and make you grumpy all the time. People hiring you really don't care about what typical weather was where you did your training, unless it's a very demanding job (i.e. flying in Alaska)
