Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University

Horrible University
My son went to this place for a total of 8 weeks and they had the nerve to charge us $ 20 000 with no refund.

DO NOT GO TO THIS SCHOOL! I would like to note that I go to this school through their online program and go to a class once a week but all my work is submitted online. I have been going to this school for two nine

I attend this university through their worldwide campus, the Master of Business Administration-​Aviation program. Like any university, your experience is greatly influenced by your professors. I’ve had some good and some bad. it seems that they are becoming more choosy with their profs, though, because the past several have been incredible!
I gave four stars because the interface is clunky for worldwide courses, but this is set to be upgraded in another couple of months, possibly for the October 2014 term (it is currently BlackBoard, which is horrible and would have been cause for 3 stars). I didn’t have a very good experience with the jobs portal and was told (rather unceremoniously) by the internship advisor that worldwide is NOT the same as the Daytona Beach campus. Her reasoning was that it costs less. I beg to differ, I’m paying nearly the same as if I were on campus or commuting.
The only other negative thing I have to say is that not all of the information you need is readily accessible (easy to find), but your advisor will help you navigate through. The requirements for computers, etc, weren’t always clear (one course required a Windows computer for proprietary software and I use a Mac).
Otherwise, the school is more what the STUDENT wishes to achieve and gain from it. You will get the educational experience that you go after. The all-​aviation-​related coursework is true to their promise and extremely interesting. I highly recommend this school if you are an aviation buff and desire aviation-​related coursework. There are cheaper options, but they don’t carry the «weight» of Riddle. There are certainly other prestigious options, but ER offers a unique experience. I would say, however, that for someone in a different major, their feelings may be different. While I believe that there are many roads to the same job/​career, the roads don’t all give the same experience.
