Academics
Salisbury University is packed with academic features that thrill its enrollees. From the "good nursing program" to a biology department that is "quite extensive in...labs and research studies" to an education program that offers opportunities to engage "with the local community schools," students are thrilled. Atop that, there's also the Clarke Honors Program, which "gave me opportunities to be more personal with what I study and write about," and of course the Perdue School of Business, which they find to be "one of the best in the state." Students also rave about support services: the library "services are amazing" and there's a robust network of academic encouragement from groups like Women in STEM. One student with a learning difference also notes that "teachers are very respectful of my disorder and provide me [with] what I need to succeed." Though Salisbury offers all of this and more to its attendees, it also gives students "a lot of freedom to work things out" independently. Students enthuse about outdoor classes, "team-based learning," the ability to use "augmented reality to give a presentation virtually," and "really strong study abroad [programs] for lots of different majors." One art student sums up Salisbury by saying: "The opportunities provided, especially in the art department, are absolutely fantastic."
Student Body
If you want the support of peers who "push me to work hard every day and do not let me procrastinate," Salisbury University's a great choice. Students have warm words for their fellows, saying that they're "open to help and make connections," as well as "welcoming and supportive," and, in short, among "the best people I have met." That community praise is well-earned by "a super diverse and awesome student body with people from all walks of life. We've got artists, musicians, and more." If anything, students say they'll "be sad to leave" the school when they graduate: "I have made lifelong friends and had a ton of fun."
Campus Life
Students gush about the food at Salisbury: "I'm in love with the variety of healthy options and vegetarian accommodations!" says one student; "I love food truck night!" announces another; "I love the poke bowls when they are available in the bistro," agrees another student. Lobster nights, and the convenience of "being able to stop and get food at the many places on campus in between classes," are also among students' favorite aspects of Salisbury living. Additionally, Salisbury has a thriving athletic community with lots of options for students to enjoy varsity, club, and intramural sports. One student explains that "people are always playing outside or going to the gym." On the weekends, students can be found cheering on the football, softball, basketball, and rugby teams, and enjoying the local food scene afterwards. For those not interested in athletics, "there is a club or group for everyone and anyone. It is very inclusive" and as one student notes, "I strongly enjoy the many events programs and clubs available on campus." Another student offered a final assessment of life at Salisbury: "I rate this campus 100/100. Everything is excellent."
