Yes, it helps a bit.

College grades/degree, leadership experience, etc. are more important for getting into a commissioning program (which you NEED). Also, do some research into the age limit for pilots in the branch you want...the clock is ticking.

I am 28 years old and have 350 hours of civilian time and want to be a fixed wing military cargo pilot. I also have a 4 year degree in flight operations. Does this help my odds of getting a pilot slot. any advice or getting pointed in the right direction would help alot. thanks
