An engineering degree would have no bearing on selection for flight training.

In peacetime, when there are few flight school slots available and the
services are being really picky, is that strictly true? I know what
you're saying, that the degree field of a candidates BA/BS is not a
major criteria for selection. But when the intake evaluators are
choosing among a large number of really good candidates, at some point
wouldn't they start looking down the checklist and start considering
things like what flavor of degree you hold?
