At Embry-Riddle, we understand and appreciate the vital role that parents play in the lives of their sons and daughters. Whether you are the parent of a new traditional student, returning student, veteran or transfer student we are here to assist and support the goals of you and your student. We work diligently to provide the support you need to help your student complete his or her academic degree and develop professionally and socially.This process will take a team effort from the campus staff, faculty, student, and you.
Please take time to familiarize yourself with the resources we have provided. This guide introduces you to campus student organizations and services that are available to you and your student. It provides information about the offices that can best answer your questions and take care of your needs. It is each student’s responsibility to know their Rights and Responsibilities as members of the Embry-Riddle Prescott community, as well as the basic Standards of Conduct. Students are encouraged to review these documents online. These guidelines are in place to provide a safe and supportive campus for all of our students to pursue their educational goals. In addition, each student receives a student policy handbook and planning calendar that includes information regarding student rights and responsibilities.
We hope your student’s activities during this academic year become part of a life-long learning experience that they will adopt and incorporate well into their professional lives and as alumni of Embry-Riddle. Please encourage your student to take advantage of the many student organizations on campus. These professional, academic, community service and co-curricular opportunities enhance their college experience. Through associations with students of similar interests, lifelong friendships are developed and relationships that support future vocational opportunities are forged. These activities will aid in their physical, spiritual, social, emotional and career growth.
On behalf of all of us at Embry-Riddle Prescott, Welcome! We look forward to participating in this wonderful new chapter in your student’s life!
