Admission for Other Applicants
Students Registered in Other Degree Programs at Adelphi: Graduate students officially registered in other divisions of the University may register for course work within the School of Business only if written permission from the appropriate dean, adviser, or chair is presented at the time of registration. The written permission must indicate that the course work taken within the School of Business will count toward degree requirements in the cognate program. Students registering on a continuing basis under the classification will be considered as visiting students within the School of Business.
Visiting Students: Graduate students officially registered in a business degree program at another accredited university may register for course work within the School of Business if written permission from their appropriate dean, chair, or program director is presented at registration.
