Doing a fastrack like Vaughn with an aviation degree?
Posted: 02-11-2010, 07:27 PM

I have a BS in aviation and all my ratings to fly. I know that vaughn has a fastrack program but I was wondering if anyone here has done that program after getting an aviation degree. Could that make the fastrack even shorter? Italked to mt sac and was able to work out a deal to do it in one semester but I wouldn't mind taking a bit longer to do it online. The price of living in California and not working for a semester is too steep for me.

Your best bet would be to call the college and see.

I'm kind of in the same situation. Only have my PPL but I work days and was going to do Mt. Sac at night...too bad I can't get any classes.

I hold aviation BS as well, they make you take the 10 classes no matter what. I am repeating a bunch of classes too, which sucks....but whatever, let me know if you have any other questions about their program

Not too long. I know five years sounds like a lot, but take off two for a degree, a few months for your app to go through, another year for your clearances to make it back, and a few more months to a year for whatever unexpected delays the FAA throws your way and you'll be sweating bullets like those of us knocking on 30's door.

That would be a great question for someone in the Admissions department at Vaughn at opposed to an internet forum. Let us know what you find.

It would cost you at or around $16k if your out of state. This is of course assuming completely out of pocket tuition. Loans, grants, scholarships, etc can be had depending on your financial situation.
