I would think so, contact an AME (aviation medical examiner), which you should be able to find in a town/city near you at one of the hospitals.

Hi, I haven't tried this myself but it may be worth your while to get involved in this mentoring program sponsored by AOPA(I am thinking of becoming a mentor myself).  Many airlines/businesses are looking for their pilots to have a degree in at least something, doesn't necessarily have to be in an aviation field (and of course have the appropriate ratings).  So don't think you are off course of your dreams by completing your schooling you are currently doing.

Here's the link if you're interested

Hi, I am going to a similar flight school (UND) which is argueably number 1 or 2 in the world SUPPOSIBLY for aviation.  Our undergraduate course for the commercial pilot major goes up to CFII (instrument flight instructor with commercial, multi-instrument privleges).  It is unlikely you are going to find a school with a B.S. degree that goes all the way through ATP (keep in mind that the FAA requires 1500 hours to take the test for ATP license, which is only required for being a captain of an airline catagory aircraft, not a first officer).  1500 hours adds up to a lot of money out of pocket.  The best bet is to get all the way through to being a multi-engine instructor and then build multi engine time PIC, which is what airlines are mainly looking at, and then your students pay for the aircraft rather than yourself.  Hope I have been a little help anyways Smiley Best of luck on your adventure!
