That's actually incorrect - in order to qualify for a CTI recommendation, the undergraduate degree received must be in a non-technical aviation field. You can't major in English, take the 3-6 ATC courses (depending on what school you're attending), and graduate with a CTI recommendation. Must be aviation management, professional pilot, or something similar.
