Emma - 10/10/2023

I love it. it is perfect for people who want to go back to school for another degree, or if they have a full time job, etc. I am so glad I chose this school, compared to other schools who also offer online engineering degrees. I will never regret this choice.

Ryan - 08/31/2023

Embry Riddle has been a stand up school that I would recommend to anyone interested in aviation. They have great professors and staff to assist in helping students. Further, the school is very veteran friendly! The classes seem well organized and I have learned lots since starting. I would highly recommend!

Anikah - 09/06/2022

I love it. The professors take their time to explain the assignments in class, and so far I've learned so much already. I enjoy my classes, and I'm always well informed as to what events are going on outside of the classroom. I also like that the academic counselors are helpful, and that there are plenty of resources for paying for college, tutoring outside of the classroom if it's needed, job opportunities, and more.

Nikita

The online program is very accommodating, where interaction between the faculty and students are in real time with options to take classes in different time zones. In my opinion, the adjunct faculty brings real-world experience to the classroom as well as trends and norms.

  3. Describe the students at your school.

    Eager to complete a degree. I have one classmate in English Composition and Public Speaking who started out doing horribly, but through encouragement and constructive feedback he ended the course doing very well (better than me in fact). Physics was a very interesting course as our instructor welcomed questions and we hit him with everything we could to understand the concepts behind thermodynamics, conservation of energy, and all of the other topics associated with Physics courses. Political Science was very interesting and we eagerly looked into the political situation of our country.

  5. What kind of person should not attend this school?

    Anybody with a serious addiction such as sex, drugs, alcohol, or technology (video games mainly). The academics is very intense and requires a lot of your time for research and study. I myself have to balance study, research, and work as I am putting myself thru graduate school. People who are tired of school and just want to party, travel, work, and have fun should do so. They should get the addictions out of the way so that they can concentrate on their studies when they are ready to pursue a higher education.

Advisor-Personnel take the opportunity to get to know all students by name, and they take the time to do periodic check-ups on all students.
