Sure, you can set some goals and chart a course to achieve them. But, you need to put in the time and work.

Getting a 4-year degree expeditiously may be possible and save you money. Some folks are able to cut some time off the 4-year timeline and streamline the process with extra work. But, you want to make sure your degree is worth the time and can help you should your future plans change regarding airline employment. If your priorities change or you lose the ability to hold an FAA medical certificate, you may not want some degree you rushed through that means nothing because you were in a hurry.
