I dont think thsat had anything to do with going to UND. I have a friend that didnt not go to UND that got hired at Expressjet with that kind of time. It depends onthe person, not the institution.

I wil agree though that you dont need a degree in aviation. In fact its better to do something totally different in case aviation doesnt work out for you. I know pilots with degrees in business, journalism,political science and english. Plus and Idont know about the folks on here but it depends on yur goals. If all you want to do is fly planes for the next 30 years thats one thing, but the money is in management. SO you might want to get some business skills about yourself as well. Many young people dont think about the future. They just thinkabout the now and whats in front of them. You have to plan ahead for the future. Set yourself up for success.
