Students wishing to concentrate in graphic/advertising design will normally do so beginning in their third year of study. Interested students will be required to present a portfolio to the art faculty consisting of 10–12 artworks selected from courses completed at Adelphi. This review will take place in March of the student’s second year. Its purpose is to encourage and support those students who demonstrate the discipline and dedication necessary for success in this demanding program.

Students completing the B.A. degree in the College of Arts and Sciences must also satisfy the University’s foreign language requirement. There is no University requirement for a foreign language for the B.A. degree awarded by other schools of the University or for other bachelor’s degrees such as the B.S. or B.F.A. The State of New York requires 3 credits of a foreign language or passing score on the NY State Regents test in a language other than English.
