People might as well get a degree in basket weaving to get a 4.0 GPA if they don't even take into consideration what your degree is in.

I have a question about this. I知 working on my degree right now, but I only have 20 credits so far. I am well aware that Thomas Edison does a pilot degree and will count our pilot credentials as a whole lot of credit. There is no way I値l have my bachelors done before I get to the regionals which is fine I suppose. I知 going to transfer to TESU after I get hired by a regional anyways.
So,
1. How difficult is it to work on a degree while in the regionals?
2. How many credits a semester would be advisable to take as a regional pilot?

It depends. I'd get online and see what your schedule is like.

Depends on the class. General Ed classes will require more work and more time. Some of the aviation classes will just be review of stuff you already know. I knocked out introduction to aviation in one day. I would probably not want to take on more than 3 general ed classes while working at a regional. I wouldn't worry about taking too many of the aviation classes.

A Bachelor of Arts vs. Bachelor of Science is irrelevant and one vs. the other has no bearing on getting hired. It's a checked box and nothing more.
There may be some applicability to job searches outside of aviation, but that's another line of discussion, and largely superfluous as most people don't work in their degree field anyway.
