I believe that the box says a 4 year degree from an accredited college that you want to check.

If you want to go to a major, you'll need the 4 year degree

Pick something that interests you. If you want to be smarter, check out the Government website www.bls.gov that can give you ideas for future positions and the job growth per industry. If I were doing it again I'd probably do something like engineering (not computer) or medical.

Choose whatever degree you are interested in. Period end of story. If aviation is the only thing that intrests you then choose that. Don't be a business major because someone on the internet says it's more useful than an aviation degree.
No matter what you read on the forums all an undergrad degree does is check a box. You can be well rounded and study aviation in college. On the other side of the coin don't be fooled that by studying aviation in college it will somehow get you a better pilot job. Once again it just checks a box.
