Chris’s Answer
I would recommend picking a degree with some sort of a technical background. Baa degree in science instead of a degree in art. Though, a technical background is not required to become a professional pilot. Most reputable companies where you could be employed as a pilot do require a 4-year degree these days. A technical background will help you prepare better mentally for the rigors and demands of being a professional pilot.
You are not required to go through a formal aviation school or the military to reach your goals of becoming a professional pilot, though those routes will help.
