Online Degree
 

Hey,

I was just wondering how does an online degree look to the major airlines?

Thanks

get it from a university with a real physical campus and they will not know the difference. Texas A&M at Commerce, Texas campus, UT Tyler, are all reputable state schools with online programs. Degree does NOT say "online"

Does anyone know if UVU is still the cheapest online Uni? Was doing Embry but went broke after awhile trying to finish it up. A handful of guys at my current 135 airline is doing UVU online so I might do that.

UVU I still affordable In My opinion and worked out great with my GI Bill!

Do you know if having the CFI ratings is required ? I know there's a bunch of courses for the CFI but if you already have it then you get credit. What if....you don't have a CFI? :)

stay away from Univ of Phoenix and other schools, all are under varying scrutiny or on the radar of regulators for shady operating practices.

go to a state university with a real campus, but that allows an online degree. This is especially important if you will seek a Masters Degree years later.

Global Campus - Online Degree Programs - Tarleton State University is one such example

You don't need to get the CFI ratings, I didn't. Just did everything up to the ATP and their "turbine prep" class. You just have to have a certain number of degree credits and that's it. You could in theory take the CFI ground class online and never get the CFI added.

Do you know of any pilots at the major airlines who went to UVU online?

Also, how long would it take to complete the UVU online degree with a full time job?

UVU is a good brick and mortar school and there are tons of dudes/dudettes that I know that attended there online who are at the majors.
