Not sure what uni you're considering, but I did it through a uni. Longer time to get it all done, but most of them have pretty strong instruction. Biggest thing you'll hear from those who havent done it is how "they give degrees for anything nowadays", but oh well, you still have a chunk of management subjects to work on a well.
Structured programs also work quite well for some people, as in some guys I know have done other things to either fund their flying or as a fallback incase their lose medicals or whatever and have now left flying to slip as a priority.
