Review of Salisbury University

from Laurel, MD

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

I will be entering my sophomore year this fall 2009. As a freshman I was nervous to finally be in college, I wasn't sure how it would be. The thought of just graduating high school and now having to grow up and be a college student was a big step. I entered my first class which was biology and it was a class of 90 students. Although it was a huge class, the teacher took the time to explain in depth every topic. If a student had a question, the teacher stopped and made sure everyone understood before he moved on. I ended up with a B in the class as well as a much broader knowledge for biology.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

I enjoy being at Salisbury, but overall the school is too small for me. I love being around a lot of people, therefore I rather be at a bigger school, which is why I am considering Towson University. At Salisbury, I see almost the same students who have the same major in many of my classes. It's about a 10 minute walk from the start of campus to the end of campus. Not that big at all. Although it's a small school, there's a lot to do on campus. There are many clubs to join. I joined club volleyball and softball and enjoyed it very much. They have different contests and activities between the dorm halls. The campus throws parties for the whole campus. There's a lot to do on and off campus, but if you're looking for a big school, Salisbury isn't for you.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Worth every bit of the money spent. It all go towards a very nice and clean campus. It's not an expensive college. The food provided in our commons is AMAZING! We have days such as Lobster day, make your own pizza day, different culture cuisine days, etc. Worth every penny. Looking throughout the campus and academic buildings, it shows that the money wasn't put to waste.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

This campus is great for students who love a smaller campus surrounding. Students who plan to major in nursing. Salisbury has a great nursing program. Our soccer team and lacrosse team are very good, so if you love those sports, COME TO SALISBURY!
