Go to a college that has a variety of degrees with decent programs and also has a flight school. I was really glad I did my training in a college program. The ground school was great and I learned from some amazing career instructors and check pilots. A lot of the people training there weren't aviation majors either. Most of my students were engineering or business majors who were just interested in a private pilots license and/or instrument rating. A lot went all the way up through CFI and CFII while getting totally different majors.

There are some big colleges that offer a variety of degrees and also have a flight school. I definitely support those schools over 100% aviation schools.
