The top three factorsimpacting major decisions at the beginning of the semester for all students were job opportunitiesafter graduation, personal interest, and salary levels (Table 2). All three of these factors had anaverage importance level greater than 4 on the provided scale from 1 (not at all important) to 5(extremely important). While the influential impacting factors found in the literature vary, jobprospects and personal interest are most identified as top factors by other studies [4], [8], whichagrees with our results.

Several studies found that this passion often develops at ayoung age and serves as a primary motivator for individuals to pursue aviation education [11],[6], [12]. One study of professional female pilots found that their decision to pursue a career inaviation happened at 18.2 years of age [14]. A replication study done with graduates from acollegiate aviation program found this number to be 15.2 years of age [15].
