UK Degree when applying for pilot job in USA?
 
I currently live in the US and I am going to England next year for a bachelor degree(3 year). I plan on commencing flight training in the USA upon completion of the degree. However, I was wondering, since some carriers demand a 4 year bachelor degree, would a UK degree be an equivalent for carriers such as Delta, United, American, Alaska, JetBlue, and Southwest?

Thank You!

You could probably get 2 US ones for that :)

There is some sort of exchange system, but the details escape me at the moment. I'm sure someone here will have the details.

nbj787,

I can't speak with 100% certainty about ALL airlines, but the degree requirement seems to be for a "degree", i.e., bachelor's degree, rather than a 4-year degree. One US major uses a service to determine equivalency for applicants educated outside the USA. Maybe this can shed some light ?:
