About This School
Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University-Daytona Beach is a private nonprofit institution located in Daytona Beach, Florida with approximately 7,535 undergraduate students enrolled. Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University-Daytona Beach has an open or accessible admissions process, with an acceptance rate of 66%. The average net price after financial aid is $40,289 per year. The graduation rate is 67%, and the typical graduate earns $70,300 within 10 years of enrollment.
This is a strong option for students dead-set on an aviation or aerospace career — the $70,300 median earnings at 10 years out is solid, and the relatively low median debt of $14,250 makes the investment more manageable than at many comparable private schools. That said, the 67% graduation rate means roughly 1 in 3 students doesn't finish, which is worth taking seriously before committing to the $40,289 annual net price. If you're passionate about flight or aerospace engineering, the focused environment pays off; if you're undecided about the field, look elsewhere.
