You would just need to probably get a little more flying time than you would without one.
Yeah, i check that out, thanks for the detail, but what's really weird, is that none of the schools (private or public) i checked require to have even a CEGEP Degree. I Graduating next year to have a CEGEP degree as a back up plan, but when i went talking to the schools, they told me that a DEC is a plus but not a requirement. But yeah, i agree that with a university degree they must take u more seriously. But, like an Aviation MBA at Concordia is like 50k (US) a year!!! Im still checking some places out to find out more info. After all, wheter i want to fly for AC, I will still need my private piloting liscence, night, IFR and Pro-Piloting Liscence to fly Cessnas first. I think im getting to pumped up over something that kinda far.
Btw, curiously, if any of you guys has a liscence, how much did it cost you guys? If i may ask. Cuz in total, for me, to get my Private, Night, Intruments and Professional totals up to about 46k (CAN). Is it a rip off?
