Advisement for undergraduates is a continuous process that begins with first-year registration and culminates in graduation. It challenges and supports students as they examine, determine, and achieve their educational goals, and encourages students to take ownership of their intellectual journey.

Adelphi undergraduates have many sources for academic advice—faculty advisers, academic advisers in the Offices of the Deans of their School- or College, and the Office of Academic Services and Retention. 

To contact the Office of Academic Services and Retention, call 516.877.3150 or email oasr@adelphi.edu.

Upon signing up, incoming first-year commuters are paired with a Commuter Assistant who will serve as a mentor and as a resource for them. Each Commuter Assistant will keep in contact with their commuting new student throughout the entire first year and help them navigate Adelphi University and get them involved on campus. 

To sign up for a Commuter Assistant, please complete this form. The program is free.  If you have any questions or require additional assistance, please contact commuter@adelphi.edu.

Info About AlcoholEdu for College

Alcohol abuse on campus doesn’t just put students’ safety and health risk, but greatly threatens the ability of institutions of higher education to achieve their organizational objectives. AlcoholEdu® can help. This interactive online program incorporates the latest evidence-based prevention methods to create a highly engaging user experience, inspiring students to reflect on and consider changing their drinking habits. Today, AlcoholEdu is used on more than 500 campuses and by 36% of all first-year students at America’s four-year higher education institutions, and is the only program proven to reduce negative alcohol-related consequences among students.

Part 1 begins July 6, 2020, 12:00 a.m.*

Part 1 must be completed by Sunday, August 30, 2020, 11:59 p.m.

Info About Sexual Assault Prevention for Undergraduates

Sexual Assault Prevention for Undergraduates helps colleges and universities comply with the educational requirements relating to sexual misconduct in Title IX and the Clery Act. Built in collaboration with leading researchers and practitioners, this course combines cutting-edge instructional design and rich media to educate students about healthy relationships, the importance of consent, and the role of bystander intervention. Interactive exercises take students through real-world scenarios and encourage students to challenge sexist language and attitudes, provide guidance for supporting someone who has experienced harm, and promote healthy relationships based on positive communication and respect—empowering students to create safe, healthy campus environments.
