Final College Decision Help
Ok, so I have posted here before and I appreciate all of the replies I have received. I am trying to decide the best route to get to to where I want to be, an airline pilot. Here are my options:
I am fortunate enough to consider money to not be an issue due to scholarships. Please consider that in your advice. That still means I would like to get a useful degree, and I don't know if aviation is a useful degree. 1. Indiana State University - get all of my ratings and instruct for the school in the four years I am there - gain an aviation degree 2. Indiana University - gain a business degree, most likely accounting, go for my CPA, then fly after I get my degree. I would probably go the ATP, AF, or mom and pop flight route 3. Embry Riddle - same circumstances as Indiana State Any advice would be much appreciated. |
Anything but #3

Why are you wasting our time with this question? You already asked almost the same thing earlier and everyone told you to a) don't go to ERAU and b) don't major in aviation.
Yet here we are again..... |
Option #2. Don't major in aviation.
Source: I have a degree in aviation and I've never made more than 20k/year in my life. An aviation degree doesn't look any better on your resume than a high school diploma. Airlines don't care what degree you have, and if you want to get any job outside of the airlines they'll hire the guy with the business degree over the one with the aviation degree every time. |
