Adelphi University welcomes all active, reserve, and veteran members of the military with programs and services designed to meet your unique needs. Adelphi was transformed in the 1940s when the University welcomed WWII veterans to campus and today our university president is a veteran and an advocate for the new G.I. Bill, a past board chairman is a veteran, and we have a strong alumni veterans network. Adelphi strives to make the application and student experience for active, reserve, and veteran military personnel a smooth, efficient and enjoyable experience.
This site is a resource for active, reserve, and veteran military personnel who are currently studying at Adelphi or those who wish to apply.
