Adelphia College

:"For the university with a similar name based in Garden City, New York, please see Adelphi University."

Adelphia College was a Swedish-American college in Seattle, Washington, run by the Swedish Baptist Church. The institution opened in 1905, but went bankrupt in 1918 or 1919.

In 1919, the main building and campus were sold to the Jesuit Seattle College (the later Seattle University); the campus has since 1930 been used by a related Jesuit institution, the Seattle Preparatory School.

The remaining archives of the college are kept in the Swenson Center at Augustana College (Illinois).
