University Now And Flying Later???

i feel like iv hit a brick wall..literally!!

I have finished one year of university out of potental 4 years.
I want to become a pilot, and the craving to get started is increasing as the weeks and months pass. I have been at the oxford aviation acadamy assesment and failed the physics be one but got nice compliments...

Really, i cant afford oxford to be honest, it just works into about €100,000 to €150,000 give or take type rating. But i have found a saviour..EFT in florida. seems to be the real deal..Any info on it would be appreciated...

So what im really asking is should i go with my eager itch and go and do it or be the conservative type...im stuck in a real dilema...college starts back in 4 weeks...

HELP!!

You're probably going to get some nasty replies on here that you don't want to hear...

Have a read around some of the other threads, but my advice? Stay at University...

Stay at Uni! Whatever you do get your degree! Yes they come out of cereal packets now and so many have one but, (take it from someone who does not have a degree), a degree will open up many more doors for you!

Im in a position of having brought a halt to my flying training and I am very fortunate to be in a good job. However if I wish to to progress (as I may well do so, seeing the ways things are in avaition!) I will have to get a degree!

Its a no brainer in my opinion but you have to choose of course, best of luck
