This day and age, working at a regional, there isn't really an excuse not to get a degree. Online course work makes it very flexible and easy to do.

$$$. A lot of money for degrees these days, even online. That’s why some are taking it one class at a time. May not be wise in the long run, but with flight training already putting one in the hole financially it’s understandable to not feel comfortable with even more debt.

Delta weights your GPA both based on the major and where you went to school. A 2.1 aero eng degree from MIT Will trump a 3.8 sociology degree from eastern somewhere U.

won’t your pilot certificates eat up a whole lot of required classes for an aeronautical degree? I swore I saw somewhere that your pilot training can count for like 2 years worth of college credit

This program looks like if you are a CFI or Airline pilot, a huge portion of the credits have already been completed

Not only that but time too. Lots of people have families and small children that make even online degrees next to impossible.

Classes while on the road is how I finished.

Thats not an easy thing to do. If I were on a hiring committee at a legacy I would think very highly of the people that accomplished a degree on the road.

That is what I am trying to do, but my airline and the plane I’m on makes it hard with most overnights being 10-12 hours. It becomes a time crunch when you try to get a few hours of studying in on top of eating, exercising and sleeping. At least it is proving difficult to me.

I’m not convinced it’s possible to do all of those on a 10 hour overnight, let alone college classes on top of it. Maybe an hour and a half of free time by the time you get into the room and if you’re anything like me working out before bed leads to being awake another 4 hours.

Yeah just let yourself get fat while working on the degree. Something's got to give.:cool:
