I have to agree with Groundloop, most jobs nowadays, it doesn't matter what degree you have. A degree just shows that you have some life experience and have the ability to learn and apply yourself. As most of us want to become pilots, I think that if you choose to do a degree, just do it because you enjoy the subject, not because you feel you have to for a potential "if everything doesn't work out" career.
Another point to consider is do you really want to have debts from uni when you are planning to start your flight training? Maybe if you have full financial support from your parents it doesn't matter so much but unfortunately most of us are not in that situation. I personally would love to skip a degree and go straight into work to save money for training; I know it is very risky though...
