A Message from the President
2009-2010 Tuition and Fees


Dear Adelphi Student:

In these rapidly changing and difficult economic times, Adelphi University has, because of our conservative fiscal management, fared better than many other schools. At the same time, just like in many families, economic realities must be faced. To meet these realities, the University has significantly reduced its operating budget in areas that do not compromise its commitment to academic excellence or student success, has increased institutional financial aid, and, with the approval of the Board of Trustees, has increased tuition and fee rates for the 2009-10 academic year by 3.9%

In planning for next year, the Board and University leadership were steadfastly focused on ensuring affordability while allowing the University to continue to meet its commitment to providing a high quality academic experience for all students. Please be assured that our tuition decision was guided by a desire to keep tuition at Adelphi University among the lowest for private universities in the area while continuing to invest in our students, faculty, and academic programs and enhancements. An example of our commitment to affordability is a 9% increase, to approximately $32,000,000, in institution-funded student financial aid this year, which will enable us to better meet the financial needs of our students.
