The Adult Degree Program (ADP) at Lehman College has been serving students 25 years of age and over for more than 40 years. We specialize in helping adults who have not yet completed a Bachelor’s degree start or finish their degree. We offer flexible admissions criteria, personalized advising, courses designed especially for adults, and the opportunity to earn credit for prior learning.

To apply to the ADP program, you must submit the online CUNY application, official copies of your transcripts from every post-secondary institution you attended (even if you did not earn any credits), a copy of your high school diploma or transcript, and the ADP Personal-Statement-Instructions.
