Flight Students
All students intending to pursue flight training at Embry-Riddle should carefully review the following information. Failure to comply with pre-flight requirements will delay the start of your flight training. The following documentation is required to be presented at New Student Orientation prior to the start of classes.
Proof of U.S. Citizenship The Aviation and Transportation Security Act (ATSA) requires that all U.S. citizens taking flight training must show proof of U.S. citizenship. These requirements must be met prior to the start of any flight training. Proof of U.S. citizenship may be presented by submitting one of the following original documents during orientation. Provide only original documents. Photocopies, even certified copies, are not acceptable. If using a document other than a valid passport, a current government- issued photo identification document will also be required. A valid, unexpired U.S. passport An original birth certificate with a raised seal documenting birth in the United States or one of its territories An original U.S. naturalization certificate with raised seal, Form N-550 or Form N-570 An original certification of birth abroad, Form
FAA Medical Certificate All students planning to begin flight training at Embry-Riddle are required to hold a current first or second-class Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) medical certificate.

Please be aware that past medical and/or legal problems, including drug- and alcohol-related convictions, could result in you being denied a medical certificate even if you feel you are in good health. All previous medical and legal issues should be evaluated before you begin your education for an aviation-related career; if they are not, delays are common. You will not be allowed to enroll in flight laboratories without an FAA medical certificate. Therefore, to avoid delays, we advise you to obtain your medical certificate before coming to Embry-Riddle. For students coming from countries outside of the United States, please contact the Airman Certification coordinator at the Flight Department prior to obtaining a medical certificate. In some cases, medical certificates may not be valid. If you have significant medical and/or legal problems, be sure to bring copies of medical and/ or court records for your FAA medical examiner to review. Both the government and the aerospace industry consider drug- and alcohol-related infractions a serious problem. Note that paying a fine for such a charge is a conviction. Medical and behavioral standards for professional pilots and air traffic controllers are among the highest in our society. Mistakes, poor judgment and other “indiscretions of youth” can have lasting consequences for your career. Prevention through responsible behavior is key.
Do not mail original documents; bring the original documents with you to orientation. Students will not be allowed to start their flight training until this documentation is submitted. There are no exceptions to this regulation. Contact Flight Data and Certifications with questions. Building F6 928.777.4327 or prfltrec@erau.edu
