General Information

While academic course requirements for admission vary by major, Delhi typically requires a minimum of a 75 (C) high school average or a minimum of a 2500 on the GED exam.  All students must graduate from high school or receive a General Education Diploma prior to attending.  Students with an IEP certificate/diploma will not be accepted.  Delhi is not an open admissions institution.  These student are advised to take the GED exam and earn a 2500 or higher.

 Home-Schooled Students

Under New York State law, SUNY Delhi may admit as matriculated students only persons who have a high school diploma or its equivalent. Because of this requirement, SUNY Delhi has established a specific admission policy with respect to home-schooled students. The purpose of this policy is to ensure that home-schooled students are treated fairly yet in accordance with the requirements of state and federal law. The policy set forth deals exclusively with the criteria for eligibility to be considered as an applicant for admission. Once eligibility for consideration is established, the applicant also must meet both campus and program-specific admissions requirements.

Applicants 16 years of age or over (i.e., beyond the age of compulsory attendance)

These home-schooled students will be eligible for further consideration as an applicant to matriculated status if they can provide either 1) a letter from the superintendent of the school district in which the student resides, attesting to the student's completion of a program of home instruction meeting the requirements of Section 100.10 of the Regulations of the Commissioner of Education, or 2) a passing score on the general comprehensive examination for the state high school equivalency diploma (G.E.D.) and the diploma itself if the student is eligible to receive one.

Applicants under the age of compulsory attendance (i.e., below 16 years of age)

These home-schooled students will be eligible for consideration as applicants for admission to a matriculated status only if the student can provide a letter from the school district in which the student resides attesting to the student's completion of a program of home instruction that is the substantial equivalent of a four-year high school course of instruction and meets the requirements of Section 100.10 of the Regulations of the Commissioner of Education.

Applicants from out of state

Home-schooled students who are not residents of New York at the time of application will be eligible for further consideration as applicants for admission only if they provide a letter or other documentation from officials in the school district of their residence establishing that the student has the recognized equivalent of a high school diploma in that state.

Delhi does offer an Education Opportunity program (EOP), but students must be both academically and financially disadvantaged.  

Under no circumstances can a student's learning disabilities be taken into account in the admissions process.  Please be advised that for students to receive accommodation, SUNY Delhi must be given a recent (within the last three years) copy of their psychological evaluation for their disability.  If you have specific questions or would like a Delhi representative to visit your school we encourage you to call 1.800.96DELHI or email us at enroll@delhi.edu.

We look forward to working with you and your students!
