So after consulting several people and giving it great thought, I came up with a plan that may work and want to run it by the airline pilots on the site.
Here it is - I complete my associates in Business Administration , begin ATP ,complete training, start making money and building hours, get hired by a regional, then complete my bachelors online. The reason I like this plan is because I
1)Will get 2 years off of what I need for my bachelors
2)Will be able to start working sooner as a pilot and pay off dept
3) Give me something to do while working at a regional
I guess I’ll be seeing you guys at ATP soon as I’m in high school (senior)but am already half way done with getting my associates. I should be applying to ATP sometime late 2018! Can’t wait to start
As long as the online degree is from a reputable institution, such as Embry-Riddle, you should be fine. I would stay away from the University of Phoenix type schools.
As a for profit college, they have an incredibly high dropout rate and a very high loan default rate. They also are simply not respected in the education community. Do some research on them, you will find out lots of interesting information.
