Review of Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University-Prescott
Do you feel you’re learning a lot?
All of the teachers that I have had know what they are talking about. Almost every teacher has worked in their field of study at some time or another before coming to work at Riddle. There have not been any classes where I have sat there going How is this going to be useful? Everything is related to your field of study... it is awesome!
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
When you are at Embry-Riddle you are apart of something. I live on campus, and have for the past two years, it is a lot of fun. The school does its best to make being there fun. We have a great student union and the Board of Campus Activities often has events for the students to go to such as a Movie on the Lawn or some comedian come and we get to go for free. It is a lot of fun.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
I am not going to lie, Embry-Riddle is a very expensive school. However, it is considered the Harvard of the Sky. There are some employers that, if they see Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University on an application it is an automatic interview... or at least you get put into the pile of only four applications instead of the pile of 100 applications. The community of Embry-Riddle is so tightly woven that if there is an Riddle graduate already working at a company you would like to work for it is relatively easy to be introduced and have a contact. That is one of the amazing things that you get when you are an Embry-Riddle student.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Come with an open mind. The professors and fellow students are amazing. The school community and campus are wonderful. It is a great school
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Students that work hard and want to learn do really well at Embry-Riddle.
