Can anyone comment on this? How accurate is it?
Here is DCA’s own written word in the magazine ads and website.
"Even in today’s job market, 97% of our graduates are hired as First Officers!*"
The asterisk * small print at the bottom of ads reads:
“* 728 out of 754 students who completed the entire program through August 2003”. Wow, that is fantastic, don’t you know? DCA has been in business since 1987, which is 16 years. If you divide 728 by that 16 years you only get 45.5 students per year, or 3 students per month on average, that graduate. This means less than 6% of their students make it as First Officers."
