Q: Is there any flight schools in the US that you dont need to go to college?I am going to Delta ASA and they jus
college or High School Dep or GED.I go to an aviation academy high school in virginia.

A: Most public airports in the USA have an FBO (Fixed Base Operator) who can set you up with flying lessons, to at least get your private ticket... Depending on where you live, you may have to travel a bit to find an instructor for your instrument and commercial training, but you don't need a college degree (or a formal flight school) to become a commercial pilot.

Q: Why Out-of-State students pay more than a resident students in US college schools?
Isnt it ridicolous that out-of-state students pay so much money (more likely triple the price) compare to resident students? What if they came from another country especially the one who came from the low economic country who come to US just to strive hard to earn some money, do the government think about that? What do the government think, that those students who migrate are filthy rich? I was just wondering, "WHY?, WHY?, WHY?". Comments, Suggestions, and Answers are welcome to comment in my question. Thank you!

A: I am taxed by my state to support the public colleges in my state. I don't owe an education to anybody. If you want to drop in for a cheap degree and check out for a lucrative career, I'm an idiot if I enable you.

Q: What is the difference between div 1A and 1AA college football schools?
I'm interested in the exact details. What is the number of enrolled students that sperates the two? What is the size of the stadium difference? What is the Income difference? Basically, if there is a 1AA school that wants to become 1A what would they have accomplish?

A: It's not necessarily a matter of enrolled students - Northwestern is smaller than Florida state, but both are 1A. And Washington University in St. Louis, which is the same size student body-wise as Miami of Florida, is DIII The NCAA puts schools in various brackets based on the size of the stadium and how many people actually do attend games at said stadium. That's the defining characteristic of school division. For more info, read below.

Q: In what ways do religiously affiliated schools affect college life?
I am not religious at all but I am intested in schools that seem great but then i see that its religiously affiliated and i get turned off. Does it really affect things like the courses?

A: Do you mean religiously affiliated high schools or colleges? Religiously affiliated high schools are probably O.K., if you don't mind the emphasis on religion. A degree from a religiously affiliated college won't get as much respect as a degree from a mainstream college when applying to mainstream universities. If there is a lot of competition to get into a particular university program at a mainstream university, someone with the same GPA from a mainstream college will probably have a better chance of getting into that program than someone from a religiously affiliated college.

Q: Does anyone know of a site which lists college majors and the schools which offer them?
I've searched on Google and looked at the Princeton Review site which doesn't have what I want, along with a few others. I'm looking for strictly traditional colleges or universities. Not tech schools and the like.

A: Collegeboard.com has a very helpful book with that exact information. Go to a local book store or order it online. Here is a picture of the book of majors: http://allbooksuk.com/img/502f303837343437373635342e30312e5f53434d5a5a5a5a5a5a5a5f.jpg

Q: What are the best college music schools in San Francisco?
I am 18 and I sing, play piano, and guitar. I slacked off in high-school, I have a 3.62 GPA. My family does not have much money for me to pay tuition with. Basically, I would like to know which schools to avoid so I don't waist my time applying. (which schools will not give me a free-ride no matter how talented they think I am?)

A: You actually have a great GPA, if that is on a 4.0 scale, but unless you are trying to apply for an Ivy league school, you are fine for any school, Just fill out a fafsa, and make sure you have your parents,(whoever carried you on their taxes) information. That will help you with the money situation. As far as the music, every college has a radio station, just find out what it is, and listen to their stations.

Q: What schools are Montgomery County Community College credits transferrable to?
I don't know where to find the information that tells me where credits from Montco are transferrable and where they are not. I'm totally new to the college scene and I have no idea where to find this out. If anyone knows either the list of schools credits are transferrable to or where I could get this information I would really appreciate it.

A: The thing I would do is find colleges that you are interested in tranferring to, then go to their registrar office and see if they will accept your credits. Good luck.

Q: Could someone describe the process of turning military schools into college credits?
Also, which courses would these military schools count as?

A: If we knew you branch it would help a lot. Anyhow, here is the Navy answer. You go to your local Navy College office. They will print off your SMART transcript. This lists all of your Navy schools, what classes they might be equivalent to and recommended ACE credit. You take your SMART transcript to the college of your choice and their admissions office will evaluate your credits (just as if you were transferring in) and give you a list of what credits they will give you. In my experience, I got mostly general ed credits. Nothing fantastic, but prevented me from having to take a bunch of BS general ed classes to get a degree. I have no idea how accurate this is for other branches. Please include your branch when asking about the military.

Q: Is a degree from a foreign college recognized by local schools?
My best friend has an associate degree in Business Administration from a foreign college, she wants to get her bachelor's or maybe her masters degree from America. Will her associate be recognized from schools here? Or will she have to start all over again ?(in other words will she have to restart and do 4 more years to get her bachelor's?)

A: In most cases the entire associate degree will not be recognized, but many of the classes will. If the course descriptions and requirements match up it usually will transfer. You would have to check directly with the university you paln on attending. To do this you can send a copy of your transcript to your desired colleges and request that they inform you of which courses are able to transfer. Another alternative would be to take placement tests instead of taking the actual course. CLEP is one testing program you can look into.

Q: How do the schools work in England? (Specifically, High School to college.)?
I'm thinking about moving in with some relatives in England, but I'm curious as to how the schools work. What grades are there? I heard you only go until you are 16 years old, but here we go until 18. Help?

A: Secondary school (high school) is for 11-16 year olds. education after that is not compulsary. Unlike in the states collage is free.
