Degree possibilities
DeVry has degree programs. The DeVry in Denver advertises them all the time. Maybe you can turn your program into a degree. I strongly urge you to consider it.
I don't want the degree debate to spread to yet another thread, but I, again, must disagree strenously with Yip (who has a B.S. in Physics from MSU and a Masters). Most of the competition has at least some college, if not four-year degrees, masters' degrees, and even law degrees. Aside from the benefit that education confers you don't want to short yourself in the face of strong competition. It isn't that being a college man/woman will make you fly airplanes better; it's that it makes you a well-rounded person. In your case, your technical certificate demonstrates that you can handle a hard academic program and can understand technical material, of which you will face an onslaught as a pilot. The degree documents and is proof positive of your abilities.
Once more, good luck with your plans.
