Adelphi University Top Questions

What's the most frustrating thing about your school?

Katlyn

The most frustrating thing about my school is it is mostly a commuter school. I believe that if they had more dormatories and more room for people to live on campus the schools campus life would greatly improve.

The tuition and financial help is definintely the most frustrating thing in Adelphi University. It seems as though they don't care about the students who are middle and lower class, who cannot afford these absurd fees. If you cannot afford the left over tuition bill because you and your family don't have the money, they will charge you even more. It seems as though they want to punish students who dont have money.

administration does not always talk to each other and know whats going on from one department to antohter. and occassionally there are some issues that just seem to take too long. also food not so good its average

The food, more than anything else, which is fine - not delicious, but perfectly passable, especially for a college campus.

The school is very expensive, and sometimes I don't feel as though I am getting as much out of it as I should for the money. It is probably comparable to a CUNY or SUNY school, which are a lot cheeper.

I find that there is a noticeable gap in the quality of the faculty and the quality of the students. The average Adelphi student is a upper middle class to semi-wealthy child who has been given most everything they've ever touched by their parents. They're ignorant. The faculty on the other hand is hidden gem and some of the most intelligent people I've ever met. Many have been teachers at Harvard, Columbia, and Yale and the education itself - especially in the liberal arts - is top notch.

Nicole

Being illegally charged an extra $200 fee that was not refunded.

Parking situation for commuters

Nothing is really frustrating about the school. The only thing i can think of is that the fine arts building is to small.

angela

The lack of diverse things to do as a commuter student and the noise level of the library.

The most frusturating thing about Adelphi University is finding a parking space
