tncmtncm,

      First of all, where will you training (flight academy, college, a CFI at your local airport, etc)? Flight acedemies, or any of these, will guide you in the right direction as to the preperations you will need to make for your advancement. Secondly, what are your goals as a pilot? You mentioned a "fleet". Are you referring to an airline? Do you want to become an ATP? Also, if you are wanting to get hired with an airline it will be a benefit to have a four-year degree. It doesn't necessarily matter what field your degree is in, but I do know that having the degree will be advantageous to your hiring with any airline.

Hope I was of some help.
