ADP's Bachelor’s Degree program serves students who are 25 years of age and older and specializes in helping adults who have never gone to college and those who have completed some college but were unable to finish their degree. ADP staff are experts at working with adults. We understand that you often have full-time jobs, children, and very busy lives. Our advising is designed to help you be both informed and realistic about the time required to succeed in college. Our goal is the same as yours—we want you to earn your degree and all of our advising is geared toward that objective.

Students in the Adult Degree Program earn a regular Lehman college degree, but with additional support, services, and flexibility. Adult Degree Program students may choose any major offered at Lehman College or design their own course of study in our Bachelor of Arts or Sciences in Liberal Studies program (BLIS).  More information about BLIS is located here.
