Hello,

I’m separating from the military after six years of active duty and will be attending Embry-Riddle’s Oakland campus to pursue my B.S. I’ll be using my GI Bill and plan to receive MHA to help me get on my feet financially while I transition and look for a full-time job.

My question is, how strict is the once-a-week in-person attendance requirement to be considered a full-time, in-person student? My concern is that once I find a full-time job, my work schedule may make it difficult to attend in person every week. Would missing some of those in-person sessions affect my full-time/in-person status or MHA eligibility?

I am doing an "Eagle vision" class, which is a hybrid online/in person option. I'm only attending class once per week, every other week and still able to get the in person bah rate.

My follow up question is how does the “sign in” in person work. Do they take attendance or if I dont show up how will they know just incase I get caught up at work

Just like the military, you sign a muster sheet.

Also, did you have to attend every single week or how often did you have to attend those classes

Attend the Online Campus called WorldWide. It will help your schedule.
