The mission of the Department of Student Activities is to provide students with the opportunity to experience co-curricular programs that support and complement the educational process and contribute to a well-rounded education. Student Activities works with other areas of the campus to offer cultural, intellectual, recreational, and entertaining events for all Embry-Riddle students, while providing a learning experience which is not available in other academic settings.

There are more than 100 clubs on the Daytona Beach campus and more than 65 on the Prescott campus. Each campus has sports clubs, special interest groups, Greek life (sororities and fraternities), honor societies, aviation clubs, military organizations, international student groups, and religious clubs. You'll find lots of opportunities to attend intercollegiate athletic games and participate in a variety of recreational and intramural sports at both our campuses.

The Department of Student Activities provides support for all of these organizations in addition to assisting students in starting a new club/organization. Involvement in any club or organization develops social responsibility, strong group dynamics, leadership, communication, management, management, budgeting, and decision-making skills. Students have the opportunity to learn about all of the organizations at the fall and spring Activities/Club Fair.

Each campus has an intercollegiate athletics program as well as many recreational and intramural sports and fitness programs. Visit the student life pages at the Arizona campus or the Florida campus.

Each campus has a well-staffed International Student Services office which serves as the central point of contact for issues concerning international students at Embry-Riddle. An International Student Orientation is held each semester to familiarize students with University policies and procedure as well as the American education system generally. The office provides services including advising students on immigration regulations, and financial and personal matters.

The office also assists international students with the processing of forms and documentation of status required by foreign governments, sponsors, the U.S. government, and the University.

International Student Services staff members continually strive to provide opportunities for international students to become involved in campus and community programs which facilitate a cross-cultural awareness with University faculty, staff, and students as well as the local communities of Daytona Beach and Prescott. Some of these activities include International Days on both campuses, programs with local families to introduce students to the community, speaking engagements in local schools and at community service organizations, and trips to area attractions such as amusement parks, national parks, and cultural festivals.
