If you like aviation, get an aviation degree. It'll be easier for you. And a bachelor's degree is a bachelor's degree. The same people who think college degrees are useless are the same people on here recommending a non-aviation degree as a backup plan. I think having an aviation degree gives you a *slight* edge on being hired at a major airlines, but the real reason I would do it is because it's easy and you have a greater chance of completing it with a good GPA if you actually enjoy aviation.
Try to complete everything with minimal debt if you can. Big name schools don't really matter. Get to a regional ASAP. Volunteer, join a fraternity, play intercollegiate sports, or anything else you can do to make your resume stand out from all the other boring pilots.
Good luck!!
