Would it be a smart choice to base the college you go to on whether or not it has programs relating to the job you want to have?

Finding a college that has an aviation program is really difficult, however, there are a select few that do have this option. Would it be a wise decision to attend a college just because it has this program, or would it be a better idea to attend any college that stands out to me and figure out what to do from then on? #college #aviation

How can a woman become a pilot in such a male dominated field?

I’ve always loved planes, they’re never scared me, in fact, I’ve always felt safe in them somehow. I want to be a pilot, but knowing that the chances of them choosing a man surpasses the chance of a woman being chosen is frightening. I mean, how many times have you boarded a plane and heard a feminine voice over the intercom saying “This is your captian speaking”? How can a young woman be guaranteed a spot in such a male dominated field, do we have to work twice as hard as men do? #aviation #sexism

How difficult is it to land a job as a pilot in the Air Force?

I am currently going through JROTC, and I am looking to go into the officer candidate program. I would like to get into the Air Force Academy, and I think that will better my chances. I have already started the long and grueling application progress, and have gotten into contact with my Admissions Liaison Officer. Do you have any suggestions on how I can better myself, my chances and get noticed by the Academy? #mliltary #air-force #military-service #pilot #aviation

What is the cheapest and easiest method to become an airline pilot

I'm currently a junior in high school and plan to attend a 4-year university to get my bachelors in computer science. I know that most major airlines require at least a 4-year degree, but it doesn't matter what they major in. I could go to a more popular aviation school such as Embry-Riddle and do my flight training while going for my 4-year degree, but from what I've heard people acquire a lot of debt from this school. Knowing this, I would like to know the best method for obtaining all required licenses without acquiring too much debt from flight school. Additionally, I want to know what to expect salary wise as an airline pilot, and generally how long it takes to become one. #aviation #airline-industry #pilot

What can I do to improve my chances at entering a decent college?

I'm in the 11th Grade and I am unsure about which college I can get into. The college I'm looking for is one that is known to most people and has many available majors, but does not require the highest of grades(B-C area). Another thing I wonder is if the college can provide the necessary classes for someone interested in engineering or a career related to aviation. Apologies if this was confusing to anyone reading, I'm indecisive about my future. #engineering #aviation #aeronautics

Is it worth paying a decent amount of money to participate in a job fair?

I have an opportunity to attend a job fair, but for one day, the amount seems to be a little extreme. I just wanted to know are these expenses worth it considering the connections one may make. Especially when the job fair is Women in Aviation and my Master's degree is in Criminal Justice in Homeland Security. #human-resources #aviation #government #cyber-security #recruitment
