Academics

Studying online: most students study entirely online

In Fall 2023, 11,315 of Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University-Worldwide's 12,268 students (92%) were enrolled entirely at a distance. A further 727 (6%) took at least one distance course alongside in-person study.

Distance-education figures count STUDENTS enrolled in Fall 2023, not programs on offer. "Exclusively at a distance" means a student took only distance courses that term. A college with few or no such students may still run online courses or an online degree, so a low figure is not evidence that online study is unavailable, and a high one is not a judgement of quality either way.

How many students attend Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University-Worldwide?
Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University-Worldwide reports total enrollment of approximately 12,770 students (undergraduate plus graduate) (IPEDS, fall 2024 enrollment). Total enrollment is a useful sizing signal, see the institutional profile for additional breakdowns when available.
How much does Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University-Worldwide actually cost after financial aid?
The average net price at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University-Worldwide is approximately $18,725 per year. Net price is the total cost of attendance minus grants and scholarships that never have to be repaid, so it is what students actually paid rather than the published sticker price. What families pay varies with income: students from families earning under $30,000 paid about $18,216 on average, and those from families earning $110,000 or more about $24,015. These are averages for students who received federal aid in a prior cohort, not a quote for any individual family. Run the institution's own Net Price Calculator for a figure specific to you.
What is the graduation rate at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University-Worldwide?
Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University-Worldwide reports a graduation rate of approximately 21% (IPEDS, Graduation Rates 2024 collection: 4-year cohort 2018, 2-year cohort 2021). This measures the share of a prior entering cohort who completed their degree within the federal tracking window. It reflects who enrolls as much as what the institution does, so it is not on its own a measure of teaching quality, and it is not comparable across institutions serving very different students.
How much student debt do graduates of Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University-Worldwide have?
Students who borrowed at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University-Worldwide left with a median of approximately $23,666 in federal loans, and about 10% of students took federal loans at all. Both numbers matter: a median describes only the students who borrowed, so it reads very differently at a school where most students borrow than at one where few do. Federal loans only, so private and parent borrowing are not included.
How much do graduates of Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University-Worldwide earn?
Median earnings approximately ten years after entry are $84,131 for students who received federal financial aid at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University-Worldwide. This reflects the mix of programs the institution offers and the students who enroll, not the effect of attending, and it covers aid recipients rather than all graduates.
How should I verify final details about Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University-Worldwide?
CampusPin compiles institutional data from public datasets like IPEDS and the College Scorecard, plus institutional websites and editorial review. Before applying, paying a deposit, or making a final decision, confirm admissions requirements, current tuition, financial aid, deadlines, and program details directly with Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University-Worldwide.

One year after graduating, a later class (2018-20 graduates, measured 2020-21) earned a median $54,827; the two figures describe different graduates, not one class's growth. Graduates who borrowed took out a median $23,250 in federal loans at this college (about $246 a month on a 10-year plan), and had $22,000 in total federal debt including other colleges attended (same degree level).

One year after graduating, a later class (2018-20 graduates, measured 2020-21) earned a median $66,999; the two figures describe different graduates, not one class's growth. Graduates who borrowed took out a median $22,405 in federal loans at this college (about $238 a month on a 10-year plan), and had $20,508 in total federal debt including other colleges attended (same degree level).

That order is one federal measure, not a ranking of program quality: earnings reflect the field and where graduates go to work as well as the program.
