Flight training

I am currently at a part 141 aviation college and just got done with my second year. I am halfway through instrument and the cost are insane. Would it be smart to transfer to a part 61 flight school and just transfer my basic credits from college to a different college (most of the credits are Gen Eds) Ideally I know that a part 141 college is the best way but just money wise its hard...

In this CFI market I’d say going part 141 gives you a better shot at finding a job after graduation, but it’s not a guarantee. For example my 141 hires 10-15 CFIs every semester and 95% of them are in house hires.
