I'm not old enough to go to a university, but I'd like to get an Aviation Science degree from Texas A&M



edit: I can get my freshman and sophomore classes knocked out at a Community College in SA.

It will start with a quality 4 year college that offers a Professional Pilot program.
They have this? I figured that you'd go for aeronautical engineering or something.

Combat Pilot
ATC
Golf Course designer
Teacher
College professor
Advertising management
Marketing/business

These are some that I can remember.  As of right now, I'm majoring in History to become a U.S. History teacher at the high school I graduated from.  Of course, I'm still taking core classes, so that is liable to change at any given moment.

One of my friends is going to Middle Tennessee State University to become a professional pilot.  It's pretty much a "major" in some colleges like MTSU.

Kansas State (Salina campus) has a good 4 year pro pilot program as well.

I changed my mind exactly once.

I wanted to be a marine biologist when I was younger, but switched to fighter pilot around age 12.

Of course I had always wanted to be an astronaut and ensured that my schooling and job choice could be used as steps towards that goal (lots of computer, math, sciences classes), but I figured out pretty early it would never happen so I settled on being just a fighter pilot who was also a computer geek.

As a child my dream job was the driver of the machine that used to sweep the streets :D

Then when I grew up I realized that job wouldn't be too glorious. In the end I realized I didn't want a job - I wanted to be filthy rich and avoid the labor in reality.

Now I'm working hard to get there. Ironic.

As a very young boy, I dreamed of being an excavator driver...




My dad, a proud master carpenter at that time, almost went ballistic over this dream of a 5 year old  :lol

Today he would be glad if I were one...  :noid
