Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University-Prescott Top Questions

What should every freshman at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University-Prescott know before they start?

The most important steps to finding the right school are knowing what field the student wants to enter after graduating, what setting in which he or she wants to live, and finding the right balance between academics and social life once enrolled in classes. Attending a two year school after high school gave me a chance to determine what career I wanted. I then researched the best four year school for my selected major. In this selection process, important factors are the school's reputation, small class sizes, faculty familiarity with the industry, and the school setting. Being from a small town, I wanted my university's setting to emulate a close-knit community. The student leaving home for college should know where he or she wants to live, be it a rural community, a suburb, or large metropolitan area. Once enrolled in a university, the amount of work, coupled with a bustling social scene, may seem overwhelming. There is a saying, "There are three things you can do in college: study, party, and sleep. Now pick two." Now, this is not entirely true, but it does emphasise the importance of prioritizing and balancing schoolwork and social life.

This school is very focused on the Aerospace profession. It is very expensive, but it is worth the experience if you have a good number of scholarships. You can really get into debt here so watch out for that. There are very small classes. I have no classes that are in an autorium. You will not be comming here for the ladies as the school is 82{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} male, but that is what nearby colleges are for. There are a lot of carrer expos and Army and Air Force ROTC programs are very large here. The Engineering program is very intense, and Aeronautical Science is fairly easy. Make sure you get into a club or you will be bored out of your mind here. It is definately not the typical college experience for better for worse, but I am very glad I chos to come here.

This is a college that is geared toward a certain kind of person, if you do not want to fly/ are not interested in flight then I would not suggest coming here. Because that is what is all about here, and it is what everyone talks about.

Visit the school and talk to students who attend the school and the professors. I knew that Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University was the school for me because I went on a tour and talked to the student tour guides and some professors.
