My experience with CDL U was somewhat of a challenge. Even though I signed up 3-4 weeks in advance, I was not given the information to take my drug test . When I was given my drug test papers (first day of class) I had to leave and spend all morning in line to get my drug test taken, missing the morning lesson at school. After that mishap, when we get to start driving, we had trouble with the trucks not running properly. Thus made it hard for my class to get addaquit driving experience in my opinion. On week 3 the schedule was changed up and we went from having 10 students instead of 5 per class. The only thing that made my experience better was the fact that I had Kent as my driving instructor. He has the knowledge of a driver and good training experience to helped my class in every way to learn what we needed to know in order achieve our goal of getting our CDL. I appreciate everything Kent done for my class but I think the faculty, equipment and other instructors could use some help.

CDLU changed my life! They didn’t just teach me how to drive a truck. They gave me the training needed to EXCEL in the job I love.The instructors and staff are not only knowledgeable and qualified, but they’re just genuinely awesome people.The very best return on investment I’ve ever made is on tuition at CDLU. It’s hard to believe I get paid so well doing what I love!!

2 years after I completed the school and a year after I paid off the loan they are telling me that I haven't made a payment in 12 months and I owe them over $2200, and they threatened legal action against me.I paid them almost $6000, and I have paid them every penny I agreed.

I want to thank my instructors "Buck" and Daryle and the rest of the CDL University owners and staff. They did a great job teaching me how to do the pre-trip inspections. In addition, I was taught how to drive and park a manual transmission semi tractor trailer. I felt prepared to take my CDL test and was able to pass the test on the first try. Thank you once again!

I can honestly say that this is one of the VERY BEST educational investments I’ve ever made. The instructors are not only proficient communicators, but they are Drivers with real world experience. Instructor to student ratio is key to the program quality (promoted teamwork and friendship) Curriculum is concise, sound and formatted well. Many thanks to all the instructors (Daryle, Bruce, Shawn, Ken and Buck) Special shout out to our primary instructor Shawn. Shawn is a very skilled, polished and gifted trainer. As a instructor myself, I learned much more than how to drive a truck, but how to communicate to students effectively for learning retention. Thank you CDL University. - Ben V.

I was looking for a career change so I began researching schools and well this is where I ended. I greatly appreciate the skills and knowledge gained from CDL University. I was nervous because I’d never driven manual but Kent definitely made sure I mastered the technique. Now when I get in my car I try to shift gears and double clutch 😂😂😂😂. My experience here was great! Thank you CDL university for the push and getting my truck driving career started.

I chose this school because they offered weekend classes. Due to my work schedule going during the week was not an option. My experience was definitely positive and I would recommend this school to anyone. Thank you to all the instructors who helped me get my license, especially Rawley.

The Training I received at CDL University was the best training I've had anywhere my entire life. I have never been inside a big truck before coming here and passed my test the first time. They really treat you like family they care. I had more time in the truck than I needed. Kent was the best teacher I've ever had I was honestly ready to pass the test the 2nd week. The owner Darin is a passionate person and truly cares about his students well being. You will be hard pressed to find a better CDL school around. All the instructors were fantastic. Thanks guys.Richard Biles

The instructors at CDL university are top notch. I’d like to give Kent my utmost gratitude for pushing like he had. The training I received out weighed my end examination, where I aced my tests with ease on the first try. CDL University gave me the tools and skills to pursue a career with confidence. I couldn’t have done it without their guidance. Thanks to everyone in this company.Mark Love

I looked at several schools in the area for months before deciding where I would attend classes. I chose CDL University because it was the right fit for my budget, my personal life, and my schedule. The instructors here really connected with me and didn't make me feel like I was taught wrong with the prior knowledge that I had before coming to the school. Instead they built on my knowledge and really helped bud my confidence. They take the time to ease tension when you've had a rough day and help you to learn from your mistakes Instead of focusing on them. They went the extra mile for me and I couldn't be more grateful to them for all their time and effort!

Best training and best price! No doubt. All the instructors are super friendly and patient. I felt ready when i went go take my driving test, and passed thanks to this program. Only thing is i wish they offered job placement. I was told once i get my cdl it would be like 6 months to a year of driving. Not the case 1 bit.

I payed for a course but they never got me into class, a year later I started asking for my money back but they won’t give it to me , they said it’s been a year there is no since of giving it it back to you now. I believe this place is a scam.

When Darin, the owner, said that he believes Gary is the best in the country at what he does, it's something that becomes steadily more believable as you work with him until you're fully convinced by the end of your instruction. Gary does a stupendous job at explaining and breaking every aspect of the CDL test and preparation into simple, follow-able steps. A good example is his 1-2-3 process, in simplifying even the most complicated maneuvers and memorization situations into something simple, engaging, and fun to digest throughout your learning experience.Rawley, our instructor throughout our practical portion of the training was equally amazing. Every moment of training with Rawley was absolutely delightful and it was a pleasure to have him be our instructor. He's an extremely charismatic and likable instructor with plenty of knowledge to draw instruction from.And while I may not have been the easiest person to get along with nor am I the smartest or most capable, I'm hard working and diligent and no one gave up on me when I needed it. If you're honestly looking for a one-stop-shop location to achieve your CDL, the price you pay for the instruction and engaging training you receive is absolutely worth it.Other CDL schools are congested and don't provide enough drive or backing time; you will not have this problem because the classes are designed to be small and effective. You will have at most 5 students in your class at any given time, with an instructor who's engaged with you.In gist, I'm capable of having a better future because the people here really did open up a huge opportunity for me.The bottom line is that I'm satisfied and I'm happy for the people who worked with me and the money spent on this school.

Absolutely a top notch truck driving school!! Worth every penny I spent!! The curriculum and materials are detailed and spot on with the testing requirements. They give you the tools you need to be a successful driver!! You are able to walk into testing with confidence and the skill set to pass and obtain your CDL. The staff and instructors are extremely supportive, knowledgeable and treat you like family. They make your transition to a new career as easy as possible!

Everyone at CDL University truly cares about their students and wants to see them succeed. Their class sizes are small which gives you more time behind the wheel. You don’t feel like a number there instead they form a partnership with you. You will need to study and listen to your instructor. They are very knowledgeable, easy to talk to and will work with you on anything you are having trouble with. So glad I chose CDLU! I now have my license and looking forward to my future career.

I deposited $2500 for $4600 tuition fees for the training and attended class for just 3.5 days and $1400 was deducted from my deposit for just 3.5 days of a month training.Wow!!!I regretted going there...I will never advice anyone to go there.

First off thank you to the amazing staff and trainers. From working with me with cost to the training, there is not a person there who didnt want me to succeed. I'm very happy I was trained here and was able to pass my CDL test on my first time. The training is world class. I almost made a mistake and went to a different school and I'm so glad I didn't. Smaller classes means more driving time, more one on one training and that means you will pass. I will forever be in debt to them and can not thank them enough. Life changing. Gary and Dave are amazing instructor's, they know there stuff. Never once did I feel I couldn't get my CDL. If your thinking about getting your CDL, look no further then right here. Talk to Brian and check out the school, you will not regret it. Thank you so much guys.

I can't thank the dear people of CDLU enough for helping me get to this stage in my life.

Thanks again Darren, Brian, Gary, Dave, Cindy, and Bruce.

I had a great experience at Cdl University! Instructors are very laid back and knowledgeable! Not only did I learn more than enough to obtain my class A cdl in my few short weeks but I had a blast in doing so! If you want to not only be able to pass the Cdl test but do so with flying colors I highly recommend Cdl University! Best decision I’ve ever made!
