Embry-Riddle Worldwide - Online

Hello,

I am interested in the Embry-Riddle Bachelor's of Science - Professional Aeronautics program, which can be done completely through correspondance online. I am wondering if anybody on here has done this program online, and if I could get some insight into how difficult it is to time manage this program while working, how the courses are, and roughly how much time per week that I would need to put aside for course work.

Thanks in advance!

Why don't you try to contact their chat counselor, they are available at :
Admissions Department, Worldwide , Embry-Riddle

They can provide better assistance...

Yes, I have already contacted Embry-Riddle. I was hoping for a past or current student's perspective on the program. Thanks anyways

@ kaptn, great advice, I am sure you get tons of insider information out of a councelor that basically just helps enroll for classes having him or herself never even done the degree.

Resucitating this thread...

I know this is an old thread but it does pertain to my question so I figured no reason to create another thread.

I am considering applying to Embry Riddle World Wide Online to take the Associate of Science course in Aviation Management. I have searched and could not find any other online AS program.

Two questions?

Has anyone taken the Embry Riddle Online course?

Does anyone know of any other online AS Aviation Management course?

Thanks...

distance delivered aviation management

If you have a first degree, or have some industry experience, you can enter a distance study program delivered by UNSW Australia. UNSW is ranked in the top 50 universities worldwide by QS. Have a look at www.aviation.unsw.edu.au. This may be more of a challenge than a Associate Degree at ERAU but you might learn more. Good luck. SB.

That does look interesting, but the international fees are eye-watering. £16k for a Masters!

£16K for a master's is CHEAP ! VERY CHEAP !
Look around, £30K would be closer at most places, some will even be £30K per year.

I went to university back in the day where fees were £1000 a year undergrad and £4000 for a masters. Times have changed it seems...God help me when I have the children's uni fees

I was informed by ERAU-Worldwide - Online that the course I seek to complete will cost $355 per credit hour @ 60 credit hours for graduation = $21,300 USD.
