I didn't go to college...And I know a bunch of guys/gals flying at the Majors with no college degree...Plus I got a buddy who was hired at FedEx without a four year degree...He knew someone over there who got him past the HR department...And if you want a major job, your going to have to compete with all those regional pilots with thousands of hours flying experience...I would invest that money you have planned to go to college...That's what I did and I'll tell you it's nice not to "Have to" go to work...Networking is the key to getting the flying job you want.
