Graduated from Riddle in 1999. The program was good it gave me some good knowledge about advanced aircraft systems and operations, as well as airline ops and general theory that I find that a lot of the people I meet don't have a real good grasp on until much later in their careers. Not really very useful til you get further along in your career but a good solid base to start from.

The biggest thing I got from riddle were connections. I come from farm country and no one I knew until I went to school had any connection with aviation. After graduating my first job was line up by career services there. Three of my subsequent employers were run by people that I met there or I was recommended by a person from riddle, in fact my current chief pilot was my next door neighbor in the dorms there.

That being said Riddle has a good reputation. A lot of guys come out of there arrogant but a lot keep their mouths shut and get taken down a notch after a few years of hard work. The guy to girl ratio leaves a lot to be desired. It is kind of pricey but they do have some resources that are worth it.

My advice is this, if you have some ins in the aviation world you can probably get away with not going to an aviation specific school. If not get an aviation specific degree, but not necessarily flight concentrated. In the end just pick the school that most suits you.
