Mohd Suhaimi Fariz 2 Report post Posted April 10, 2009 (edited) Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University is the only accredited, aviation-oriented university in the world. So, if you love aviation, GO THERE!. A lot of astronauts, and military pilots from the USAF is from Embry-Riddle, as well as approximately 25% of all American commercial pilots.

Leong Chuo Sheng 0 Report post Posted April 10, 2009 Embry-Riddle is probably the best aeronautical/aerospace uni in the world. Even my uni here (Massey University) has an exchange program for Bachelor in Aviation Management (my degree) as well as ATP and LAME courses. Go for it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mohd Azizul Ramli 2 Report post Posted April 11, 2009 I posted this before. Nice course. Embry Riddle is worshipped like Harvard/Oxford among A.Netters. Quite a prominent members are student or former student of the university, Ronerone and SR103 across my mind. Embry Riddle has 2 faculties, 1 in Daytona Beach, Florida (Main Campus) and another 1 in Arizona, if I am not mistaken. I'd rob a bank to go there if I were you.

Min Chun 0 Report post Posted April 13, 2009 34k USD includes everything, from tuition fees to all the living expenses, but I believe it's just the minimum Hmmm mostly by Aug I'll 'end up' in Florida I guess Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jerrold Wu 0 Report post Posted April 13, 2009 I am currently enrolled at the Arizona ERAU campus, and it's quite nice as well. Both campuses have their pros and cons, but of course I'm slightly more biased toward the Arizona one! Feel free to contact me if you have any other questions.

Thanks Pieter I was really on the cloud nine when I got the acceptance letter ! Hi Min Chun, Yes, Massey University has exchange programs with ERAU as well as Bonn and Dortmund University in Germany. We do get some Americans and Germans here at Massey, as well as sending some over to ERAU and Germany. However, I believe you can only do a maximum of 1 year on exchange. Hope this helps Oh and congrats on your acceptance to ERAU! Edited April 13, 2009 by Leong Chuo Sheng Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yea perhaps I can join the program and exchange to NZ for some times. I love NZ alot I am currently enrolled at the Arizona ERAU campus, and it's quite nice as well.

I got the application fees waiver from AZ campus and I tought it was from Daytona Beach Campus. I applied and only found it out halfway but DB campus waived it for me too I prefer the weather in Az than the Florida's Oh ya guys, I have paid my tuition fees deposit and confirmed my enrollment as new ERAU transfer student Edited April 26, 2009 by Min Chun Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm looking forward Congrats Min Chun I also applied to ERAU and got my application accepted in 2006 for study in Aeronautical science at Prescott, Arizona campus. But the tuition is too steep. I feel that if we pay 34k per year to get study the aeronautical science, it is not really worth it. But alot of foreigners are majoring in that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
