In November, Standard & Poor’s (S&P), the global leader in financial market intelligence, reaffirmed Adelphi University’s credit rating of A- with a stable outlook after a comprehensive evaluation of the University’s financial health and creditworthiness. This offers an unbiased third-party evaluation of the college’s financial stability. To read more, check out this story recapping the rating.
When an institution plans to close, it must provide its accrediting body, such as the Middle States Commission on Higher Education (MSCHE), with a plan for how it will assist students in completing their degrees. These plans outline a shared commitment to serve students with other colleges and universities and are called “teach-out agreements,” ensuring students can continue their studies as seamlessly as possible.
Adelphi signed a teach-out agreement with Saint Rose for three undergraduate and eight graduate programs that CSR identified as best matches based on our aligned curriculum plans. While students don’t need a teach-out agreement to transfer from a closing college to another college, the agreements offer credit transferability and financial aid guarantees that typically go above and beyond what a student might receive in a typical transfer process.
Students admitted to one of the three approved teach-out undergraduate programs are guaranteed to have all credits transfer to the corresponding Adelphi program identified as part of the agreement. Undergraduate students pursuing one of our alternative programs will still have the transfer of their completed credits maximized in accordance with Adelphi’s transfer credit policies.
Students admitted to the approved teach-out graduate programs will transfer all completed credits to Adelphi University. Those pursuing alternative programs will work directly with each program director to evaluate which graduate credits may be transferable to their program of choice.
