Hi @threeighteen! Thank you for sharing your situation. I feel glad that I have met someone in the same boat as me who is willing to share their situation as well. So how is it going for you now? are you in an engineering school already? I see switching into a different degree like a 'cop-out' as well, but I am willing to take the switch if the exchange is having more time to work and invest in the flying career as soon as possible. I have already applied to universities declaring engineering as a major so if I get in, I don't know if I would still be able to switch.. But I kinda think too that accounting might be a better major than engineering if I am willing to pursue a commercial flying career in the case that if I get laid off or disqualified to work as a pilot, it's easier to pick up from where you stopped in being an accountant? at the same time, academic-wise it may not be the easiest major, but it shouldn't be as tough as engineering to be able to work on the side of studying? I might be wrong but that's how I view it..
I may have got into my prospect university for an engineering degree..so that kinda adds up to my confusion on what to major in now.. I'm still trying to sort it out.. It's funny that I am so confused on what to major in.. but I have one clear goal of being a pilot..
