Default Online BA degrees

Hello, I fly for an international American carrier, I'm 37 and have plenty of TT and PIC. I have an AAS in Aviation Mgt. and want to try and use as much as possible of it towards a BA of the cheapest and easiest kind.

My goal is to fly for U.P.S. Any online programs would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Phoenix University?
Western Governors University?
Embry (ack!) Riddle (blech!)?

But I'd guess your favorite search engine would have more answers than this place.

Hey, I am working through a BS in Management (the most exquisite kind of BS degree) through UofP. They break it up into manageable 5 weeks chunks, one class at a time. It's pretty flexible, for instance I had to withdraw for a class because I had a big event come up and I didn't have the time to devote to the class for a couple weeks. I was able to resume a new class in a couple weeks. Not the cheapest but they design their curriculum to work for your average working adult.

Feel free to PM me if you want more details.

Check out West Virginia University Tech’s program that’s partnered with flight safety.

I’m finishing my bachelors through Thomas Edison State University. They accepted all of my FAA ratings and pt121 training course towards basically all my credits except for core/gen ed curriculum.
I have taken online classes through other, cheaper places like Sophia learning, and then transferred them to TESU for subjects like algebra, statistics, etc...and have saved hundreds of dollars that way.

Whatever one you select make sure that it is properly accredited. Air carriers that require a degree check the accreditation of your educational institution. If it does not hold appropriate certification they will bounce your application.

Most schools have an online program of some kind now. I did my BA at Penn State and thought it was great. Considering doing my Masters online now too.
