Student Ratings
Kimberly Howell Student at This School - Grad Year 2013
As a part-time Graduate student traveling to the campus only once a week on the weekend I really have not had much opportunity to take advantage of the extracurricular activities Adelphi has to offer.
Boogey Monster Alumnus - Grad Year 2012
I like the friendly atmosphere of the school. The Professors were for the most part courteous and fair. They varied in terms of teaching ability and expectations, but I feel that I received a good education.
