I never understood why the marketing departments of all the aviation universities and academies use that 98% job placement score. I personally think its just that...a marketing tool to lure in unknowing students just to say that if you go with that school you're pretty much guaranteed a job, which you won't. Choosing another school to go to is up to you. I left one school to go to another so called "good aviation school," just to find out it was much more expensive and definitely not the kind of environment I wanted, so I actually returned to my old school. It was the best choice I've made. It saved me a boat load of money and I came back to an awesome flight school. I would definitely not get a degree in anything aviation. If you decide to pursue one, go for business marketing, management, education, medical field...anything besides aviation. But even at that, why do you need a bachelors degree...if you get laid off in this industry and you're the entrepreneur type, become a electrician, plumber, roofer, painter, carpenter, whatever you like doing, these jobs require some training but you can make the same dough doing these as you could with a bachelors and you won't have to pay for that degree. If I was you, I would truly consider going with the local fbo and a local college in the state where you're from. You will greatly appreciate it later. You'll hear some people on here boast about how there so called "great aviation school" is so much better than the local fbo. This is completely untrue. Those who say things like that are the ones that paid 80k+ for their flight training and they feel the need to justify spending that much money by putting down the fbo. Anyway the choice is yours, but I would recommend going down the path that will make you the happiest in the long run.
