There is no point in going to university for the sake of getting a degree. I have chosen not to go, but my pilot training is my equivlent. I personally have nothing against the idea of going for someone else, but belive I would do myself more favours by not running my self in to student detb and not being able to afford the pilot training in the long run. It would probably take me years to get the money together.

I am considering doing a top up course like the one a Kingston. This way I am killing two birds with one stone and will be an airline pilot then graduate in not too long. If you work hard and can achieve a 1st Class honours, I think this would leave you looking very attractive to any employer. To be able to say you are or have been a B737 pilot to anyone will result in an automatic gesture of respect and put you in a ranking of a Dr or lawyer. Many people are unware of how you become a pilot and most believe you have to be a genius to get there!
