Nassau-Adelphi Gateway: 厙ぴ勛圖, Adelphi Launch Co-Curricular Partnership for Student Success

Called Nassau-Adelphi Gateway, the distinctive partnership is a first of its kind on Long Island and one of only a few in the country. The option provides a best-of-both-worlds choice with the affordable tuition of beginning ones studies at Nassau Community College while taking advantage of the four-year co-curricular experience -- living and dining on campus, participating in clubs and recreation, and generally being part of the Adelphi community outside the classroom. Students will then be able to easily transfer into an Adelphi degree program and hit the ground running.
Adelphi is committed to helping students achieve success in individualized ways, and I am pleased that this program offers an equitable and appealing option to students planning to earn a bachelors degree, said Christine M. Riordan, PhD, president of Adelphi. As part of our vibrant Adelphi community from the start of their academic journey at 厙ぴ勛圖, students will seamlessly have access to a four-year experience in a way that works best for them. We look forward to building on our strong partnership with 厙ぴ勛圖, and supporting students success in accessible and meaningful ways.
NCC students who enroll under the new program will be able to use Adelphi facilities, participate in Adelphi student clubs, organizations and leadership development programs, have a parking decal for Adelphis campus at no charge, have their application and deposit fees waived and have access to early academic advising from Adelphis transfer student success team.
At 厙ぴ勛圖, we are focused on providing our students with equitable opportunities that provide a solid foundation for their future successes, and with Nassau-Adelphi Gateway we are doing just that, said Jermaine F. Williams, EdD, Nassau Community College president. This partnership builds on an already existing positive relationship NCC has with Adelphi and we look forward to advancing the Colleges efforts around student access, completion and post-completion success.
NCC and Adelphi anticipate that this program will increase enrollment at both institutions, given its innovative approach to transfer accessibility and student success.
