Sorry if my post was misunderstood - I wasn't suggesting that anyone should do a degree as well as a frozen ATPL just for CV brownie points!
What I was trying to say was that if the only thing stopping you from going to university is the thought that you can get an fATPL for the same money (and you definately can't) then you need to consider things more carefully.
University is a fantastic experience which opens up many doors and teaches you things which are useful in all walks of life. If you have the opportunity to go it's not something I would give up lightly. I did both, I'm now 22 with 620hrs and £55,000 of debt. Believe it or not, I don't feel that I've lost out in terms of time or money!
That's only my opinion though!
