If the list exists then show it don’t keep everyone in the dark. Nobody will have faith in program if there isn’t more transparency. Also the bachelors degree requirement shouldn’t be required. That’s only going to restrict more people from flowing over and deciding to go elsewhere instead of waiting for United.

Who are YOU to state that that the bachelors degree shouldn’t be required? I think there is a sizable disconnect today among applicants at all of the legacy carriers. It wasn’t long ago that someone being hired at UA/DL/AA without a bachelors degree was extremely rare. You act as if it is one’s right to get picked up at United without one. Wrong. I wish you well in your journey and hope you find a good fit for you in a career carrier.

Assuming the culinary arts degree applicant has competitive flight experience, you bet. He/she finished something that he/she knew was necessary to competitively apply to the majors and most likely a lot more interesting to spend a multi-day trip with. Luckily, for the 7,000 hour application to which you speak, there are a number of high paying options out there now so everyone wins.

Yeah that’s why everyone has removed the bachelors requirement except for United 😂. FedEx , Delta , American just to name a few don’t require it.

If you can prove to me a cooking or business degree will make you a better pilot I’ll believe in the Aviate program. The truth is it doesn’t at all. Real world experience will teach you all that. Do you want a guy that can make the best omelette you’ve ever had or do you want a person that can help you fly the plane while you handle the emergency. Pick one and please don’t pick on a empty stomach.

But to not get one, puts you at a great disadvantage when everyone else has one by that total time, plus perhaps a graduate degree or two.
