SEVIS (Student and Exchange Visitor Information System)
Embry-Riddle is authorized under federal laws to enroll nonimmigrant alien students. An international applicant is defined as a nonresident, non-immigrant person entering the United States on F-1 or J-1 student visas. All I-20’s are issued through the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS), which is a governmental computerized system to maintain and manage data related to foreign students and exchange visitors during their stay in the United States. This system allows for real-time access to this information and assists students in complying with the terms of their visas. International Students are required to comply with all SEVIS requirements. For more information about SEVIS, please refer to the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Web site at http://www.ice.gov/sevis/


No person acting within the scope of his or her authority and responsibility at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University shall discriminate on the basis of race, creed, color, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, age, marital or veteran status, or disability.


The Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act, Public Law #101-542, requires all colleges and universities in the United States to provide literature to prospective students, upon request, which relates crime statistics and the nature of the protection afforded students and their property at that college. This law also requires each institution to provide every person who submits an application, and to all enrolled students and employees, information regarding the institution’s security policies and procedures. Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University is in full compliance with this law and such information is available through its Campus Safety departments. More information and statistics are available for Daytona Beach campus and Prescott campus.Visit the campus safety sites for more detail.
