Adelphi: The Full College Experience—Close to Home
Here are six top reasons students choose Adelphi:
1. Adelphi Is a U.S. News & World Report Best College. Adelphi is committed to helping
students succeed. That’s helped us earn five “bests” from U.S. News, ranked among the
nation’s Best Colleges, Best Value Schools and Top Performers for Social Mobility.
2. 95 Percent of Our Students Have Jobs or Are in Grad School Within Six Months of
Graduation. Adelphi students are career-ready when they graduate. We’re a Career
Development College of Distinction, with an award-winning Prep for Success program
that provides the knowledge, skills and internship experience employers are looking
for. A recent survey showed the average annual base salary for Adelphi bachelor’s
degree graduates is 25 percent higher than the national average.
3. 87 Percent of Full-Time Undergraduate Students Receive Scholarships and Grants.
This year, Adelphi awarded more than $84 million in scholarships and grants to its
full-time undergrads.
4. Small Classes Mean Personal Attention. With small classes—an average of 21 students per class—students learn from dedicated professors who
know them by name.
5. Adelphi Is a Recognized Leader in Diversity. Adelphi has been nationally recognized for our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion.
Students of color, international students, LGBTQ+ students, neurodiverse students, those who are the first in their families to attend college, and
many others will find a home here and have access to mentoring and support.
6. Adelphi Provides a Safe Environment. Safety is our top concern during the coronavirus pandemic. We’re ready to reopen this fall in accordance
with New York state protocols. We’ve rearranged campus spaces, reimagined dining and rethought everything—from housekeeping to health
services—to keep our community safe. And we are fully prepared to respond to changing conditions.
