Review of Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University-Worldwide

from Portland, OR

Describe your college in three sentences.

I respect the university for all of it's hard work in getting students the information to succeed. However, at Embry-Riddle- overtime, you may feel as if you're just a number. The reward though of being an Alumni is gratifying.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

1) Take it for what it is. 2) A lot of math classes involved. 3) The teachers get paid for passing. THEY WILL NOT FAIL YOU. 4) Great education.

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

It's def. a challenge. The thought of homework bothered me- coming out of the Marine Corps. However, the challenge wasn't in the books. It was how much time school took from my life. A lot of papers-

Describe the dorm life at your college.

I presently take online classes at what is know as the Embry-Riddles Worldwide Campuses. I have my own home, and go to one of the campuses once a week for class.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

Our campus has a lovely selection of vending machines. Nothing fancy.

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

Really? It's a private school, and we're all adults. It's classwork and get out. The classes are set up to run from 4-6 hours. Nothing says I wanna be here till 10pm like a lecture from a teacher who obviously loves chatting.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

I'll rate this as neutral because really you are paying for your degree. Like I mentioned before, the teachers get paid for students passing. They will not fail a student.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

-none-

Which types of students will excel at your college?

A lot of students I see come in and go are Air National Guardsmen, or retired Air Force. A lot of young pilots as well.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

Not at my campus

How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?

My Campus is located at our local International Airport. Safety is the number one priority.
