Hey all, please all who read this try to answer please.
I'am Lebanese currently living in Emirates for my whole life, iam 16 finishing the last year in school.. So, the thing of this thread is that I want to be a pilot from when I was younger, and i'am always searching for universities that gives a bachelor degree with CPL and i found many for example.. Swinburne(AUST), Griffith(AUST), Western Ontario(CANADA), and many others in UK, but all of them are 110,000(amersican $) and hight with accomodation and meal plans, so they are so expensive, so if someone please could help me find a university tat is good and offers a bachelor degree with CPL in a maximum of 90,000$ or 95 with accomm and meals etc.. I searched some in South africa , i heard they are good, but i coudlnt find any... please help:uhoh:

Brunel University in the UK offers a BEng + PPL package (http://www.brunel.ac.uk/about/acad/sed/sedcourse/ug/mechanical/aviationpilot/) which to a non-EU student would cost approximately GP£40k, plus they offer a collaborative JAA ATPL groundschool package (although don't publicise it as widely as they probably should).

By best guess is that if you went with them for BEng+fATPL you'd end up having paid around another £25k on top, plus your living costs.

So, that would be, roughly, £65k + 4 years living costs, so around £100k as a non-EU citizen. That's roughly US$140k at current exchange rates.

To be honest, so long as there's nothing in your personal background which would get in the way of a training visa, I think that the best prices and packages are likely to be in the USA. Try Embry-Riddle at either Prescott (http://www.erau.edu/pr/degrees/b-aerosci.html) or Daytona Beach (http://www.erau.edu/db/degrees/b-aerosci.html).
