Back in late 99'/early 00' I applied at ACA, Comair, and Eagle with less than the stated minimums and received calls for interviews at all three. ( I wound up not going to any of them however.) Paper is cheap, spend a couple of hours at the computer and apply at every regional regardless of their minimums.
SkyWest is the only one that I know of that won't bugde on the minimums.
I don't have any statistics to back it up, but I had heard once that less than half of the pilots SkyWest hired had a college degree.
