Difference between flight school and Uni

I've been looking around for the best route to be a commercial pilot.. But I'm confused by the difference between a flight training school and university that offers a bachelor in aviation.

Indeed, Uni might seem like a safer route as besides obtaining pilot license it also gives me a university degree, which going to a flight school doesnt. However, is university like a more "generic" pilot studies where it only focuses on theory? And does it mean after the 3 years of Uni study I'll have to undergo another course(wasting another amount of money) in order to be an airline pilot? Advice pls!
