Alot of people assume that the flight training costs are included in the tuition but we know they're not.
Sorry, I found the links I was looking for. I missed the little search box in the upper right corner of their website. When I entered "costs" it came up with the following links........

Estimated Cost of Attending Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University

Costs and Payments, Daytona-Beach , Embry-Riddle

So for ERAU you'd be looking at $40,302 for tuition, books, and room/board x 4 years PLUS on the second link $51,900 for the multi-engine route.

So at book rates you're out $220,000! I realize many students don't pay "full price" for tuition, but gee, even with a discount you'd be out a lot of coin.

Good luck to your kid!
