Alumni Benefit FAQs
All Embry‑Riddle alumni and future alumni are generally eligible to become members of the online portal. By definition, alumni are former students of the university who have successfully completed a full undergraduate or graduate program, completed at least 24 credit hours in an academic program and self-identified themselves as an alumnus, or hold a certificate from the flight or military training programs during the period from 1927-1960 before Embry‑Riddle was an accredited educational institution. To access and continue to use alumni benefits and services, alumni must be in good standing academically and financially, and have not been denied physical access to the university's facilities. Honorary alumni — those non-students who have been recognized by the President and Provost for their achievement and benefit to the university — may also be considered university alumni.
All current students are considered future alumni and have access to alumni events, networking opportunities and certain alumni benefits as a student. Student participation as future alumni begins your journey to being Forever an Eagle. Students can create an alumni profile and be a part of the Embry‑Riddle alumni network.
The Alumni and Giving Portal can be accessed online.
The administration of records and registration is handled separately at each of Embry-Riddle's campuses. Request a transcript from the registrar of the Embry-Riddle campus you attended. The Office of Alumni Engagement can confirm graduation year, major and degree program information for potential employers and others at no charge.
Please note: Transcript requests are mailed within two business days. The Office of the Registrar cannot control delivery times once these are mailed. However, the average time for domestic mail is approximately 4-plus days, and the average time for international mail is approximately two weeks with the potential to be longer during a holiday.
Unofficial transcripts are available to current students and may be viewed and printed from the Campus Solutions Student homepage at no cost.
Unofficial transcripts are not available to prior students or alumni who no longer have a current username and password for ERNIE.
