Resolved Question: Is my aviation and engineering plan in San Diego a good idea?

I'm looking to major in Systems Engineering at the University of San Diego and majoring in Professional Aeronautics at the nearby worldwide campus of Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University at the same time. I'm also looking into taking flying lessons to become a commercial pilot at a flight school somewhere in San Diego. I've been looking around Google and other answers for some opinions for a good flight school in the area but I couldn't really find any good answer so I figured I'd ask with my own question. So basically, I'm looking for a good flight school in San Diego; I don't care about the price all I need is a quality school with quality training. Lastly, I'm wondering if the above mentioned scenario is a good idea. I could just go to ERAU in Daytona Beach, FL and study solely in aviation; nonetheless, I'm thinking it would be a better idea to major in something more flexible in a university focusing on many different fields of study just in case I can't do aviation for whatever reason in the future. I could also take advantage of the fact that ERAU has the worldwide program and major in an aviation related degree as well. (I should add that although Florida is a great state, I prefer California) I realize this may be a lot of work but I'm up for the challenge. I need opinions on how this would work for a 27 year old; I'm planning on starting this in January. Also, I'm looking into on-campus housing. Would a 27 year old fit in?... Read More »
