Long term goal... fly international cargo like UPS, FedEx, Atlas, ABX, ATI.

Short term goal... fly for a FedEx Feeder 135 operator.

Legacies and Majors not really my main motivation. I like the idea of being a freight dog. Possibly a LLC later down the road that is based from my home airport.

Besides flying, I am involved in IT....specifically, web development and game development. As with Piloting, a degree is for the most part not needed in development and programming.

Still paying of flight school loans. I have been involved in aviation for 7 years, and I'm not debt free yet.

If I were to get my degree, I'd like to get it over a period of 5-7 years without too many loans and going too much in debt.

Given those points, is it even worth pursuing an online degree? Or would my time be better spent improving my chops? thoughts, advice, opinions, k thanks.
