Saving on tuition is a top concern for students these days, and Adelphi University’s College of Professional and Continuing Studies (CPCS) offers a number of ways to make the degree you need accessible to you.

Cost-Saving Opportunities with CPCS

The generous transfer and life-experience credit policies and our Finish Line Program for readmitted Adelphi students make our programs remarkably economical.

Transfer Credits

Adelphi’s generous transfer-credit policy allows you to apply completed college coursework to your College of Professional and Continuing Studies program—even if you completed the course years ago. We’ll review your transcripts from previous colleges quickly. You can get a good idea of how your credits might transfer to Adelphi by using the Transfer Evaluation System (TES) on our website.

 

Life Experience Credits

Most students at the College of Professional and Continuing Studies are able to reduce the cost and time of completing a degree by taking advantage of Credits for Prior Learning (CPL). Credit may be given through standardized tests or for military training or professional training. 

 

Finish Line Program

If you made substantial progress toward your Adelphi degree through the College of Professional and Continuing Studies, but had to leave Adelphi more than three years ago, you can benefit from our Finish Line Program. Eligible participants can have their debt forgiveness and receive academic forgiveness.
