I also looked into the Tayside Aviation and CTC Wings degree program with Middlesex University.
You spend two years doing the foundation degree at 10 hours on-line per week.
You also have to pay the full 9000+ Pounds for each year even though it's only part time.
Then you move onto the full final year on-line program.
Total cost 3 x 9000+ = 27,000+ Pounds.


Or you can bypass the foundation degree by having 3 years experience as first officer.
Cost 9000+ Pounds.


CAE Oxford has a similar program with New Bucks university.
Again the foundation degree is 10 hours a week for two years.
To bypass and go straight to the degree.
The wait time is two years as first officer or flight instructor.


I think your (or your parents) money will be better spent elsewhere, than doing a foundation degree.

Everybody is thinking Ryanair 737 co-pilot.
You will need about the same money as a degree to buy your type rating.
The degree wont get you the job.
The type rating may.
