Erm ... BigGrecian ... maybe you have missed out on some of my post? It's not me who would like to train with OFT, as I never would!!! It was our fellow davepearsall who said he wanted to train with them but live and work in the US as a professional pilot.
Thank you though for your concern.

Any degree would do just fine. Know someone who is a Financing graduate and minored in French. After college she was working as a CFI before embarking on corporate flying. Whether she has already made it into a shiny airline jet I can't say.
In general any degree will be OK as long as you complete your studies. Obviously, an airline would choose an Engineering over a Sociology gradute, provided both applicants are of the same age and hold identical flying qualifications.
