<p>will they accept you with bad grades but with a good s.a.t score?</p>
It really depends how badly you’re talking and what you consider a ‘good SAT score’. Adelphi University’s 2014 GPA/SAT statistics had a mean GPA of 3.4-3.5 and an SAT score of about 1600-1700. If you have reasons for any bad grades you may write them on your college applications so adcoms can be completely informed. Adelphi is also holistic (like many other Universities/Colleges), so they’re going to be looking at the big picture of who you are as an individual (i.e EC’s, personality etc.)
