where to go to college
I am 20 years old and want to become a pilot. I currently live in CA.
Which colleges/universities do you guys recommend?
They should offer a professional pilot program at the bachelor level.
I am currently enrolled in the community college here and I plan on getting my ppl at a local airport.

If you have any interests outside aviation, it would be best to major in something else as a fall back/second career. Flying at a local flight school will get you the same ratings as an aviation university and it's often less expensive.

Yea I know but I really want to go to an aviation college/ university. The most I want to do at a local flight school is get my ppl. And I already have a fall back. I have lived oversees almost all my live and during my stay in Germany I went to an electrical school.

Fair enough. In state, you have San Jose St. That's the only one I can think of. Metro State in DEN is a good one. You do your flying at your choice of three or four large FBO's. That keeps flying costs down. DEN is a great town. They have internships with UA's training center. And it's a regular school that has an aviation program, not an "aviation school".
