So for someone like me Envoy was my only option to get in the right direction of a “Flow” with the hopes of going to mainline prior to the flow.

(Yes I have a clean record and no failed checkrides.. however I don’t have a degree and still to this day I don’t see how a psychology degree makes someone more desired then flying experience)
Are you implying that mil folks don't have CRM experience?

Unfortunately, your opinion regarding the importance of a degree means jack. The airlines are the ones that do the hiring and they seem to find some value in a college degree or else they wouldn't require/desire it. Until they change their mind, you will likely be waiting for a call. I'm not saying I agree or disagree with the degree but they're obviously not having much trouble finding qualified people with one. When they start having trouble finding people with a degree then maybe they'll change their mind.
