From the Institution

Salisbury University is a must-see, with flowering trees, green spaces, and traditional red brick echoing the natural beauty of coastal Maryland. Comfortably situated in the Salisbury community between restaurants, retail shops, and a historic downtown district, the campus is ideally located to meet student needs while maintaining the friendly ambience of nearby beach communities. An academic leader and top producer of student and faculty Fulbright awards, SU affords students access to research as early as their first semester. Faculty mentors coach them toward opportunities for study abroad, experiential learning, and national fellowships. Expansive facilities, including the $117 million Guerrieri Academic Commons (GAC)-the hub of academic life-serve faculty and students. This state-of-the-art "library of the future" also is home to academic events, instruction, digital scholarship, outreach programs, research, and scholastic enrichment. The GAC complements SU's five six primary academic divisions, including its newly endowed Glenda Chatham and Robert G. Clarke Honors College, which provide the perfect environment for students to develop a liberal arts foundation, hone their skills in communication and entrepreneurship, conduct scientific and scholarly research, and engage in public service. The explosive growth of the Honors College and SU's strong job placement rankings are testaments to its commitment to students. Academic success is matched by the spirit of community involvement in over 100 student clubs and multiple service projects. Students cheer on SU's Division III athletic programs (with 27 national championships) in new facilities. The campus also is known nationally for sustainability. The University seeks students who want to make a difference in their work and in the world.
