Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University - Daytona Beach Reviews

I transferred into Embry-Riddle in Fall 2017 as an International Student from India. Of course, all the credits didn’t get transferred due to the difference in the education system, but their Registrar helped me with skipping certain classes by taking Course Equivalency exams, since I had knowledge about those classes. I have successfully skipped one year of college and I am now a junior currently majoring in Aerospace Engineering. What’s more, Embry-Riddle has a scheme that lets you get your Master’s degree in the same field in a year! It is called the Accelerated Master’s Degree, which lets you take Graduate level classes in your senior year of your Bachelor’s degree. Overall, in terms of academics, Embry-Riddle lives up to its name of providing wholesome education in any major.

Your going to get top notch academics in any of the aviation related degrees! Great teachers and classrooms. Not your prototypical college experience with girls, booze and partying. Expensive tutiton doesn’t include flying, so if you come from a low/medium income family you will have a hard time making it. The wealthy kids are usually the ones finishing up the certificates quickly and getting the flight instructor jobs while the non wealthy kids are still working on their first few ratings. Skill and knowledge will not get you where money will here.
Embry-Riddle offers a plethora of diverse opportunities such as clubs, intramural sports, and many other organizations that feature quality students and educational staff members! The students, from my encounters, are very friendly and typically in a state of happiness. You can't be surprised given the location of the school itself; a gorgeous campus with state of the art buildings and especially technology enveloped within a great town, within a pleasing state to add!
