Gabriel Said:

What kind of college degree should a pilot get?

We Answered:

There is only one college (Seneca) in Canada where a degree (with all licenses / ratings) is offered.

PILOT LICENSING IN CANADA

Following are the links and some info that might be useful.

Seneca College homepage:
http://www.senecac.on.ca/cms/

Flight program bachelor's degree at Seneca:
http://www.senecac.on.ca/fulltime/FPR.ht…
This webpage includes the course description, and the academic and medical requirements.

To be a commercial pilot, one requires a Private Pilot License (PPL), a Commercial Pilot License (CPL), Night Rating, Multi-Engine Rating, and Instrument rating. All this can be achieved at CFI. All this is also covered in the college program; the only difference is that more simulation and theory studies are done and that you get a degree. According to my research and inquiry, CFI is one of the best flying institutes in Canada. It can take as short as 1 year to get it all done at CFI; whereas in Seneca, the degree program is 4 years, including 1 summer of co-op. However, to get a degree is always better. At one branch of CFI, they get you a job after you achieve the commercial license.

Also, to get selected, one must successfully pass the medical (physical and mental) exam to meet the Medical category 1.
Check out the following website for the Medical requirements:

For more info, contact the administrators at Seneca.

Gloria Said:

Can a college degree get me a higher starting salary if I become a police officer?

We Answered:

That depends on the department. Most offer the same salary regardless of education.

My department offers an annual bonus of $250 for an associates degree, and $500 for a bachelors. It is paid in a lump sum the first pay period in December.

Other departments are more substantial. Madison, WI offers 9% extra for an associates, 18% for a bachelors, and 22% for a masters. However, starting pay is the same, you have to wait 42 months for the increase.

You will need to do some research to find out what departments offer the extra pay.
