I'm being a smart a$$, so please don't be insulted. They require a 4 year degree but 250 or so hours? Just sort of funny what their priorities are.....
I liked how United did it for a while. You needed a 4 year degree but could reduce it by a year for each jet type that you had 300 hours of PIC in. I only have a 2 year degree, but had 5 types, 4 with > 300 hours PIC, so I figured I could have (if I had applied) qualified with a High School diploma - theoretically.

1500 hours is a firm number because you get a PIC type rating and ATP if you don't already have one.

First of all, it's a BACHELOR'S DEGREE. Second, maybe they want a more well rounded individual. Maybe they want to avoid 19 year old, immature, arrogant kids. Maybe it's because it shows a commitment to something.
Do you need a bachelor's degree to fly an airplane? No. You don't even need to know how to type a coherent sentence, let alone spell the words therein correctly.
It's a joke.
