The student must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to be eligible for, and receive, an actual financial aid award that includes federal grant, loan, or work-study assistance.
  • The estimated price does not include Food and Housing, books and supplies, etc. (where applicable) and is based on previous years' tuition and fees data. Tuition and fees may vary by program. Please contact this institution for detailed price information.

  • Average net price is generated by subtracting the average amount of federal, state/local government, or institutional grant or scholarship aid from the total cost of attendance. Total cost of attendance is the sum of published tuition and required fees, books and supplies, and the weighted average for Food and Housing and other expenses.
  • Beginning students are those who are entering postsecondary education for the first time.
  • Title IV aid to students includes grant aid, work study aid, and loan aid. These include: Federal Pell Grants, Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants (FSEOG), Teacher Education Assistance for College and Higher Education (TEACH) Grants, Federal Work-Study, Subsidized Direct Loans, and Unsubsidized Direct Loans. For those Title IV recipients, net price is reported by income category and includes students awarded federal aid even if none of that aid was provided in the form of grants. While Title IV status defines the cohort of student for which the data are reported, the definition of net price remains the same – total cost of attendance minus grant aid.

open-close Retention and Graduation Rates
First-to-Second Year Retention Rates

Retention rates measure the percentage of first-time students who are seeking bachelor's degrees who return to the institution to continue their studies the following fall.

Student retention: Full-time students: 60% Part-time students: 49%
Percentage of Students Who Began Their Studies in Fall 2023 and Returned in Fall 2024
  • ERAU-Worldwide operates on a continuous calendar system and primarily serves professionals working in civilian and military aviation and aerospace careers. Students begin their studies in any given month. Relatively few first-time bachelor's are enrolled in general, and fewer still during the subset of months examined here (July-Oct).

Students begin their studies in any given month. Relatively few first-time bachelor's are enrolled in general, and fewer still during the subset of months examined here (July-Oct).
Overall Graduation Rate and Transfer-Out Rate

The overall graduation rate is also known as the "Student Right to Know" or IPEDS graduation rate. It tracks the progress of students who began their studies as full-time, first-time degree- or certificate-seeking students to see if they complete a degree or other award such as a certificate within 150% of "normal time" for completing the program in which they are enrolled.

Some institutions also report a transfer-out rate, which is the percentage of the full-time, first-time students who transferred to another institution without completing at the current institution.

Note that not all students at the institution are tracked for these rates. Students who have already attended another postsecondary institution, or who began their studies on a part-time basis, are not tracked for this rate.

  • (*) Not all institutions report transfer-out rates.
Bachelor's Degree Graduation Rates

Bachelor’s degree graduation rates measure the percentage of entering students beginning their studies full-time and are planning to get a bachelor’s degree and who complete their degree program within a specified amount of time.

Graduation Rates for Students Pursuing Bachelor's Degrees
Bachelor's degree rate: [Began in 2016-17] 4-year: 10% 6-year: 17% 8-year: 21% [Began in 2018-19] 4-year: 10% 6-year: 23%
Percentage of Full-time, First-time Students Who Graduated in the Specified Amount of Time and Began in 2016-17 or 2018-19
  • Interpret data with caution. ERAU-Worldwide operates on a continuous calendar system and primarily serves professionals working in civilian and military aviation and aerospace careers. Students begin their studies at any time during the entry year of interest, however graduation rates must be reported as of August of the specified period. Since this does not allow for a full 4, 6, or 8 years to elapse for the entire cohort, rates labeled as 4, 6, or 8 yr more closely represent 3, 5, and 7 yr rates, respectively.
6-Year Graduation Rate by Gender for Students Pursuing Bachelor's Degrees
6-Year Graduation Rate by Gender for Students Pursuing Bachelor's Degrees: Male: 23% Female: 21%

  • Interpret data with caution. ERAU-Worldwide operates on a continuous calendar system & primarily serves professionals working in civilian & military aviation & aerospace careers. Students begin their studies at any time during the entry year of interest, however graduation rates must be reported as of Aug of the specified period. Since this does not allow for a full 4, 5, or 6 years to elapse for the entire entry year cohort, rates labeled as 4-yr, 5-yr, or 6-yr more closely represent 3-yr, 4-yr, & 5-yr rates, respectively.
open-close Outcome Measures
  • Alternative measures of student success are reported by degree-granting institutions to describe the outcomes of degree/certificate-seeking undergraduate students who are not only first-time, full-time students, but also part-time attending and non-first-time (transfer-in) students. These measures are also reported for students receiving Pell grants and those students that do not receive Pell grants. These measures provide the 8-year award-completion rates by award level (certificates, associate's and bachelor degrees) after entering an institution. For students who did not earn any undergraduate award after 8-years of entry, the enrollment statuses are reported as either still enrolled at the institution, or subsequently transferred out of the institution. Unlike the Graduation Rates data, all reporting institutions must report on their transfer outs regardless if the institution has a mission that provides substantial transfer preparation.
