Adelphi-Supported Awards
Be sure to refer to the specific terms and conditions for each award.
Eligible students are automatically considered for most Adelphi scholarships upon acceptance.
Our grants are awarded to students on the basis of financial need as determined by filing the FAFSA® and other defined criteria. Except where noted, no additional application is required.
There are numerous federal and state grants available to students. To be considered for them, you must first complete the FAFSA®. New York State scholarships and grants are open to residents, who must take additional steps to apply.
Adelphi offers a range of merit scholarships for incoming first-year students who made outstanding academic achievements in high school. These include the Levermore Global Scholars Award for students accepted into the Levermore Global Scholars Program.
Take advantage of scholarships to study abroad offered by Adelphi and external organizations.
Undergraduate Transfer Tuition Guarantee
Transfer students who meet the requirements for this program get a private education at a tuition rate comparable to that of a public institution. This reduced rate is guaranteed for up to four years.
Summer 2025 Welcome Award of $2,000
Undergraduate first-year and transfer students enrolled in summer classes may be eligible for a $2,000 credit on their fall tuition. It’s our way of saying, “Welcome to Adelphi.”
Willumstad-Supported Awards
The Willumstad School of Business offers several scholarships and prizes for undergraduate and graduate students in the school’s programs.
One-time awards of $7,500 are available to a limited number of qualified applicants in STEM Designated Programs, including our MS in Business Analytics, Flex MBA, and MS in Supply Chain Management.
Our annual shark-tank style competition offers cash prizes to top contestants. Students can participate individually or in teams of 2-5 members. Finalists present their proposals to a panel of judges drawn from our faculty and industry leaders, competing to win a $5,000 first prize, $3,000 second prize, $2,000 third prize, and a $1,000 award for best socially responsible approach.
Assistantships give graduate students at the Willumstad School the opportunity to earn up to six credits of tuition waivers per semester while helping faculty scholars conduct cutting-edge research. Assistantships are very competitive and are awarded to the most qualified candidates.
