Help with flying.

Hello fellow Ppruners

I have been fascinated with flying since I had my first trip to an airport many years ago, and I had my first lesson from the same airport. But i was wondering if any pilots out there can help me with a decision and what would you think is the best course of action.

I have applied for college to do Aeronautical Engineering and this would be a great help and also build knowledge of flying and how these amazing machines make it into the sky, but with this it will take up all my time plus won't be enough money for regular lessons at the local flying school.

So this is what I would like help in,

Should I go to college and learn the ins and outs of aviation and space my PPL training over a longer period?

Or get a full time job which might not be aviation related and not attend college but will hopefully make money for more regular lessons to gain my PPL?

I do apologise for the long post but this has been on my mind for days and expert advise would be much appreciated.

Many thanks
