Current and Returning Student Financial Aid
Adelphi students must reapply for aid each year during their time at Adelphi.
How to Apply for Financial Aid
The following step-by-step instructions intend to guide continuing and returning students in applying for financial aid. The priority deadline to submit your updated FAFSA® is March 1.
To reapply, you should submit a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®). If you submitted a FAFSA® last year, you can choose the “Renewal FAFSA®” option, which pre-fills most information into the form.
New York State residents should resubmit the New York State Tuition Assistance Program (TAP) application. You’ll also see a link on your FAFSA® confirmation page to the TAP application.
Adelphi’s TAP school code is 0010.
Upon filing your FAFSA®, requests for additional documentation may be necessary. Prompt submission of all requested documentation will assist in maximizing your eligibility for institutional and campus-based assistance.
Following completion of the FAFSA® and all application requirements, you receive your college financing plan detailing your financial aid for the upcoming academic year.
Throughout the year, we’ll send you helpful reminders to reapply for aid for the following academic year. Whether your financial aid eligibility has changed or you expect to receive the same aid package as last year, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our office with any questions that you may have.
Upon registering for classes, an e-bill is generated for your review and payment. It can be accessed and viewed by logging into your eCampus account. The document will reflect all relevant charges and anticipated financial aid.
If you are a student pre-registering for the fall and spring semesters, you’ll be billed in June and November, respectively.
Health insurance charges may be visible to select students as well. Be sure to review the University’s health insurance requirements to better understand opting in or out of insurance.
To address outstanding balances, various payment options are available to you and your family. These include:
