Apply to Your Program

Once you’ve selected a program, you’ll need to submit your application:

Faculty-Led Programs: Select “Apply Now” on the program page to submit your Adelphi application.
Third-Party Programs: Fill out both the Adelphi and third-party provider applications. Details and application instructions are available on each program’s page.
Undecided? Complete our General Study Abroad Application to start your study abroad journey. Once you choose a destination, your information will transfer to the specific program application.

The Adelphi application includes necessary administrative materials, such as an academic disclosure, health self-assessment, and disciplinary check. You’ll receive email updates from CIE to guide you through the process.

Application Deadlines:

April 15: For summer, fall, and full-year programs.

Some programs have rolling deadlines or require earlier submissions, so be sure to check specific dates.

Meet with Your Academic Advisor

Ensure the courses you plan to take abroad align with your academic goals. Your academic advisor can help verify that the credits you earn will fulfill major, minor, or general education requirements at Adelphi.
