The Adelphi University Academic Talent Combination Awards will be awarded to entering new first-year students whose profiles meet the requirements for an academic award and who demonstrate exceptional talent in theatre, dance, art, music or communications. Students must audition or submit a portfolio for the department of their chosen major, and a declared major in their talent area is required to be eligible for a combination award. Combination awards are based upon the individual's audition or portfolio review and academic record. Both academics and talent are carefully considered in determining the combined awards.
