Student Financial Services


Financial Assistance Policies

All financial assistance awards are made based on the information available as of the date of the financial assistance award letter. If the student receives financial assistance from sources not specified in the award letter, either from Adelphi or from outside sources, Adelphi reserves the right to adjust the financial assistance package.

The Office of Student Financial Services should be notified of any change to the family’s financial situation after the completion of the FAFSA if the student or parents believe it could affect the student’s eligibility for assistance. Adjustments to a student’s financial assistance award may be made at the discretion of the Office of Student Financial Services. Some common reasons for adjustments are change in budgets (for example, if the student moves from University housing to private housing), changes in enrollment (for example, enrolling part-time when originally stated full-time on the federal application), documentation of incorrect income and asset information, changes in family circumstances, receipt of outside or academic scholarships, or any other changes in information that, in the opinion of the Office of Student Financial Services, justifies a change in the financial assistance awards.

Students receiving institutional scholarships that exceed the cost of tuition may be subject to federal income tax on the amount by which the award exceeds tuition. We recommend stu­dents check with their tax consultant for further information.
