[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is she applying for an aeronautics program? I mean, this is a rich kid hobby and it's not going to confer much of an admissions bump unless specifically related to her field of study, so I'd take the EA over the pilot license any day. [/quote] She's interested in aerospace engineering, but not a flight program. [b]And it's not a rich kid hobby (how funny).[/b] [/quote] How is it not a rich kid hobby? It's like $8K minimum to get a private pilot's license. https://americanflightschools.com/learn-to-fly/cost-of-flight-training/ More in the DMV---the kids I know paid $15K. Then once you have the license it's $150/hour to rent a plane to actually USE the license (unless you happen to own a plane--lol). Our private school said it is definitely perceived as a rich kid's hobby. [/quote]
