No, I didn't mean it like that.
Take Norway for example. Everyone in Norway can take bachelors, masters and even PH.D's with ease, I believe close to 90% chose to take higher education. However I believe Norwegian airlines, and most other airlines in Europe only cares about yuor certs and experience, not college, wich is unrelated to this type of job in their eyes.
I don't think anyone has a hard time of going to college/university in western Europe
