Tuition and Fees

Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University uses a balance forward system. Any unpaid charges will appear on subsequent bills as a previous balance. Just like your MasterCard or VISA statement, charges will not be itemized a second time. Only new charges will be itemized. You are advised to keep all your billing statements.

Payment deadline

A Financial Agreement and Disclosure must be on file (sent to all incoming freshmen) at the Cashier's Office. The Financial Agreement and Disclosure designates to the University how you will be paying your tuition and fees. This agreement will remain on file until graduation or separation from the University.

All tuition and fees are due 10 days prior to the first day of each term. The payment deadline may be extended if the student receives payment from one of the following sources:

Financial Aid: Upon receipt of your award notification and any requested documents, the Financial Aid Office will send you notification of award finalization and place a deferment on your account for the amount awarded.

Sponsorship: Any student whose tuition and fees are paid by a third party (Foreign Embassy, U.S. Government, Trust Account, sponsor, etc.), is considered a Sponsored student. Formal arrangements for Sponsor payments should be made with the Cashier's Office.

Veteran's education benefits:This deferment is obtained by contacting the Veteran's Affairs Office.

Financial aid disbursements

The Financial Aid Office will send you notification once your award is finalized. Any approved financial aid will be indicated on your invoice as estimated financial aid until it is actually paid. This amount will be applied toward your balance of tuition and fees. Any balance not covered by your estimated financial aid is your responsibility and is due according to published payment deadlines. An estimated financial aid amount shown on the tuition and fee bill reflects pending awards to be applied to the student account for payment towards tuition and fees.
