Default Foreign Degrees & US Carriers

Hello,

I currently hold a Bachelor degree from Australia which 3 years is the norm and have since been employed by a regional carrier here in the USA.

I recently got my degree accredited by the recommended NACES member and they came to a conclusion that my degree is only worth 90 semester hours. It is my understanding that a normal USA Bachelor degree is equivalent to 120 hours. Does this mean my degree isn't even recognised as such in the eyes of US carriers?

Would appreciate any guidance or personal experiences in this scenario.

Many Thanks.

I know some airlines specifically ask for a 4 year degree while others ask for a bachelors. You may be able to slip through the hoops somehow with the 4 year degree requirements.
