Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University

Embry-Riddle is the world's largest institution dedicated to aviation and aerospace education, with residential campuses at Daytona Beach in Florida and Prescott in Arizona plus a substantial online presence, offering more than 100 degrees from associate to doctoral level. For a Kazakh applicant its distinguishing feature is a cost structure few institutions have: flight training is charged separately and substantially on top of tuition for students in flight programmes. A published cost of attendance therefore understates the real cost for anyone pursuing a pilot qualification, and the flight fees must be established separately before any budget is credible. Admissions run on a rolling basis across autumn, spring and summer terms. Awards at Daytona Beach are reported to be automatic for all applicants and to consider both merit and financial need.
