I'm only in my basic, general classes right now so I'm not learning things that I didn't already know. I will say that it is a good review for the more advance classes I will be taking in the future, so I don't mind being retaught these things. As long as you pick the right professor, you will feel like you have a better understanding of the material. I was told by some of my professors that if you can explain the information to someone else, then they feel their job has been complete and they won't stop helping until you get the material.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
Although there isn't much to do around the campus, there is a bowling alley that is about 5 minutes away and a mall in the opposite direction that's about 10 minutes away. The campus does things on campus to keep the students occupied, like speakers, comedians, a spring concert, SU Idol and movies on the weekend. I thought that when winter break came I wouldn't miss Salisbury, but I was clearly mistaken. You will end up missing the school because of the friends and memories that you have made. It was a pleasant surprise to me.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
I feel like tuition and room and board are at a responsible price for what you get through the campus. They're currently updating the dorms on-campus and they are really lovely to be in.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Do not stay in your dorm, you will get bored and will make no friends. Explore and open yourself up! Try your best to get along with your roommate and the people you share a bathroom with. Me and my first roommate hardly spoke and I got tired of trying to involve her in things so we ended up not speaking to each other. At the end of the semester I got a new roommate and we hit it off so much better! It might have been because she came from a bad situation and this new one was much better, but either way we were both happy and are close. If you're having problems with someone, it's a very smart idea to talk to your RA or RD as soon as possible before things get out of control. One last thing, GO TO CLASS!!! It will make things so much easier for you and you won't be panicking with your tests and work at the last minute.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Salisbury is great for students who want a college that's small and has classroom sizes that can average between 25-35 most of the time. The professors are friendly and want to help the students succeed. No matter what gender, race, or sexual orientation someone is, they will feel very comfortable on the campus. Also if you have school pride, you fit in perfectly with the other Salisbury Seagulls!
