As the premier university in the Delmarva region, Salisbury University seeks to attract and serve the best and brightest students in its local area. While Maryland residents benefit greatly from lower in-state tuition, the University also wishes to ensure that top students from neighboring Delaware and the Eastern Shore of Virginia, who cannot benefit from in-state tuition, have the opportunity to attend. To that end, beginning spring 2016, Salisbury University will award the Delmarva Partnership Scholarship to graduates from high schools in Delaware and the Eastern Shore of Virginia (non-Maryland residents).
