Flying lessons vary by flight school. I trained at OU and their flight courses were insanely expensive... I don't even recommend them! Each course (Private Pilot, Cross Country, Instrument, Commercial, Multi-Engine, CFI, etc etc) were around $5,000 EACH (and prices each year are increasing... this was on top of other college expenses such as room & board, tuition, books.. YUCK). And that doesn't even include "overage" fees if you don't complete the course in the alotted hours you paid for. In other words, I'd find a flight school provided by your local airport to learn. You'll get better attention from your instructor for a fraction of the cost.
