Generous financial aid.

Earn an Adelphi tassel—no hassle.

At Adelphi University, we’re here to help you with transfer credits, financial aid, career planning and more. We’re proud to be recognized in the 2018 Phi Theta Kappa Transfer Honor Roll, which honors the top 2.5 percent of four-year universities most committed to transfer student success.

Here are the top reasons transfers and other students choose Adelphi:

We’re committed to making your investment pay off. We offer more than $60 million in institutional aid to our students. Eighty-eight percent of incoming transfer students receive financial aid. Transfer students received $6.8 million in academic scholarships in 2017–2018.

Our beautiful main campus in Garden City—just 23 miles, less than an hour’s train ride, from New York City’s cultural and internship opportunities—provides students with a safe, welcoming place to live, with seven residence hall options and impressive state-of-the-art facilities for students to pursue their academic studies.

We don’t have enormous lecture halls. Thanks to our small classes—with an average of 21 students per class and a 10:1 student-to-faculty ratio—our world-class professors know your name. We like to say that Adelphi is big enough to give you choices, small enough to feel like home.

You’re sure to find what you’re looking for in one of our 50-plus undergraduate programs of study. Depending on your choice and interests, you might find yourself at a dinosaur dig in Utah, trading on the stock exchange, brainstorming graphic design ideas or developing video gaming ideas. You can even speed up your path to a master’s degree through our five-year programs in business, psychology and education. Or pursue an advanced degree with one of our joint programs in fields like engineering, law or medicine at schools including New York University and Columbia University.

Our two most recent first-year classes are the largest and most diverse yet. And the members of our overall student body hail from 43 states and 57 countries. Plus, you’ll broaden your horizons by getting involved in our 80-plus diverse student clubs and organizations.

In a recent survey, 97 percent of our graduates have jobs or are in graduate school within one year of graduation. Whether you’re seeking internships while at Adelphi or setting out on your career journey, you’ll find that our 100,000 Adelphi graduates form a powerful alumni network that continues to expand.
