"Theory only" = registered for classroom theory but NOT behind-the-wheel — a distinction most directories hide.

ELDT scope in Houston →Common questions
How much does CDL school cost in Houston?
7 of 41 Houston schools publish a price; see the verified cost breakdown for exact, cited figures. Where a school doesn't publish, we say "Not published — call to confirm" instead of guessing.
Why do some schools show "Not published"?
Because that school doesn't post a price publicly. Rather than invent a number, we flag it and you can request a quote. Every price we do show links to the school's own source with a date.
What does "ELDT scope" mean?
The Entry-Level Driver Training a provider is federally registered to deliver — by class and by type (classroom Theory vs behind-the-wheel Range and Road). A "Theory only" provider can't put you behind the wheel; we surface that.
