Degree Programs
Most regional airlines require pilot candidates to have an
Associate Degree and most major airlines require a Bachelor
Degree. One of the best ways for students to fulfill this degree
requirement is through our extended on-line campus programs.
|
|
When you
perform your flight training at a
Cessna
Pilot
Center
like Westwind, you can also earn credit toward a university
degree - at no additional charge!
|
|
An
agreement between Cessna and
Mountain
State
University
assigns academic credit for the FAA certificates and ratings you
earn. You can receive up to 50 hours of credit for your flight
training. That's like receiving a scholarship from MSU for up to
$12,250.

For more
than 30 years, Embry Riddle's Extended Campus has been serving
the needs of adult students by delivering courses and programs
in two ways: online and through a network of more than 130
teaching centers in the
United States
and Europe.
|
|
|
Traditional face-to-face classes are scheduled one night a week
or on weekends to accommodate the needs of students. The length
and scheduling of terms vary by location. The online programs
serve students whose schedules or geographic locations prevent
them from attending regularly scheduled classes at a residential
campus or teaching center. The programs support and connect
students in a learning community through Web-based support
groups, e-mail discussion forums, an online help desk, and
online bookstores.
|
|
|
Many of
our distance learners find the interaction with faculty and
among students to be greater than in traditional classrooms.
Extended Campus sites and programs are expanding continuously.
Contact us to locate the center closest to you or to find out
how you can begin taking online classes quickly.
