Each course at Adelphi University is assigned a number of credit hours, based on the traditional Carnegie Unit, as the unit of measure of the course’s level of instruction, academic rigor, and time requirements. The Office of the Provost bears responsibility for University compliance with federal and state regulations regarding credit hours, as well as compliance with the Credit Hour Policy of the Middle States Commission on Higher Education.
U.S. Department of Education regulations require the disclosure of general information to help students and families make better-informed decisions about higher education.
Adelphi University is committed to protecting the privacy of student records and to providing notifications to students of their rights.
The purpose of this policy is to provide guidance for students on the refund procedures of the University.
The University’s policy is to resolve eligible credit balances in student accounts as promptly as possible—in compliance with all applicable regulations and by the end of the term in which the credit balance is created— by issuing refunds to the student.
