“Our admissions process is holistic,” says Esther Goodcuff, associate vice president for enrollment management and student affairs. “We carefully read every single piece of documentation in each application. Our General Studies program is not a remedial program but one that challenges students, while at the same time supports them. Our faculty does individual tutoring outside of class, and students are given an academic counselor to help with college transition issues.” Goodcuff says that Adelphi’s admissions department looks at trends in how students have been performing in high school, watching for an upward movement. “Letters of recommendation and the essay also give us a sense of just who you are,” she adds. “We look for students who are highly motivated and truly want to do well.”
