Admission to Salisbury University is granted to those applicants whose academic qualifications give promise of future success in college. The evaluation of the applicant's chances for academic success is the responsibility of the Admissions Office, which foremost considers the applicant's high school record. Leadership qualities, community service, artistic talent, athletic talent, and diversity of background (including cultural, experiential, and geographic diversity) are additional factors used in the holistic review of each applicant. A personal statement is recommended as a way for the admissions selection committee to learn more about your own distinct and unique qualities, talents, or attributes. Letters of recommendation are not required to complete a student's file for review but are encouraged.

Students planning to enter college are encouraged to complete the college preparatory curriculum in high school. Within the college preparatory curriculum, a prospective student should have met the following minimum requirements for admission: four credits in English; three credits in the social sciences; two credits in laboratory-based sciences; three credits in mathematics, including Algebra I and II and geometry; and two years in a world language or technology approved credit. Students with additional preparation in these areas will be considered more competitive for admission.
