Absolutely loved my experience at ERAU in Prescott! Disregard the negative reviews from people still attending riddle. You will not truly appreciate the quality of education you take away from riddle until you leave and spend a few years in the work force. Upon graduation I had little trouble finding a job. ERAU is very well known in the Aero industry, maybe not so much outside of that, but everyone within the industry has a high opinion of Riddle.

Even during the peak of the economic recession I have kept my job working for Boeing and have even been offered a job with the DoD as an Aero Engineer. I know many other new grads hired around the same time I was hired and a good percentage of them were laid off within the last year. All from other schools. Myself and my friend working for Boeing, also a Riddle grad, have been spared our jobs.

I highly recommend ERAU if you are looking to pursue an Aero Degree. Sure there may not be many girls there, but I assure you that the quality of education you receive will more than make up for it. Also, given the high price of admission to ERAU, the quality of the student body is a cut above any state schools. Everyone is very polite, smart, focused and clean-cut. This all makes for an excellent atmosphere.
