Honors College Scholarship

Honors College Scholarship guarantees supplemental financial aid to high-achieving undergraduate students admitted to the program. Every full-time first-year student accepted into the Honors College receives an automatic award of $3,000 per academic year. Crucially, this award is fully stackable, allowing recipients to combine it with general Adelphi academic merit scholarships and other talent awards, up to the total cost of tuition and mandatory fees. Admission to the Honors College requires a comprehensive holistic review including high school transcripts, essays, and an interview day with a priority application target of January 15. To maintain and renew the scholarship across eight semesters, recipients must remain continuously enrolled in the Honors College, maintain full-time undergraduate status, and complete at least 18 credits per academic year.
