Do I need a degree to become a commercial pilot?
- Categories Entry criteria & eligibility
What do you need to become a commercial pilot? You do not need a degree to become a commercial airline pilot.
Whilst it is not compulsory to have a university degree before training to become a pilot it could open up more opportunities to work in the aviation industry.
At L3Harris Florida Flight School, we have partnered with Seminole State College of Florida (SSC) and Jacksonville University (JU) to provide airline pilot degrees which enable you to graduate with a degree and a pilot license.
