I say go for it blinkz, and don't take any crap from the people that want to call you names, it's a bloody hard road to the top no matter if you're financial or not. I've seen plenty of both rich kids and poor kids alike, get bitter and twisted and fall by the wayside on the road to that airline seat, in fact I suspect there's one or two of them posting on this very thread even
I'm with Bealzebub on this one ... any kid of mine that wants to take up flying, is going to get the full backing of dad's big fat airline captain's wallet, and no apologies
Depending on how old you are, there are two ways to look at the university thing ... if you're already on the north side of 26-27 then it might be worth directly pursuing the flying career ... but if you're only a young school-leaving type of whippersnapper then it's definitely worth finishing the degree, and maintaining your sanity by doing your PPL and some hours building at your local aero club during your final university year.
Now then, I don't suppose your dad wants to fund some random bloke from the internet into buying a B737 rating by any chance?
