Dual enrollment is a program where a student takes courses at the collegiate level while still in high school and receives both college and high school credit simultaneously. All dual enrollment students are enrolled at Salisbury University as non-degree seeking students.
The Inter-Institutional Registration Program at Salisbury University is designed to foster an interchange of students between Salisbury University and the other University System of Maryland four-year schools. The grades and credits earned in applicable courses taken through inter-institutional registration will be considered as home credit and, therefore, will be included in the calculation of semester and cumulative totals on SU records. Interested students must have a combined semester course load enrollment at both institutions of at least 12 credits, and at least six of the credits must be taken at Salisbury University. Students pay full-time tuition and fees to their home school and may be assessed additional fees by the host institution. Students must follow the course withdrawal deadlines of the host institution. Special permits, parking and other fees at the host institution will be billed by the host institution and are the responsibility of the student electing to participate in the program. For additional information, contact the home school’s Registrar’s Office. Students wishing to participate in this program should complete an Inter-Institutional Registration form available from the Registrar’s Office forms page and have their advisor sign it. Enrollment is on a space-available basis. Students are expected to have met the prerequisites and other criteria set for screened or restricted programs of study.
First semester students complete a Registration Survey which your Academic Advisor uses to build your first semester class schedule. During the Open Enrollment Period, all students will have access to make changes to their class schedule in GullNet. It begins in mid-July for fall semester and mid-January for spring semester. Please review the Registrar’s Calendar for the specific dates.
High school junior and senior students who are at least 16 years or older by the beginning of the college semester may concurrently enroll at SU. Learn more on Salisbury University's Dual Enrollment website.
Please make sure to pay special attention to all payment deadlines (see below).
Billing payments can be made through GullNet. Please review the instructions online and contact the Cashier’s Office if you need assistance or have questions about the bill.
You can find their contact information for all departments online at: Offices and Departments or Faculty & Staff Directory.
Classes can be dropped during the Drop/Add period for any term without penalty and the course will not appear on a transcript.
Classes dropped after the Drop/Add period and before mid-semester will appear on a student’s transcript with a grade of “W.” This grade indicates that the student attempted the class but withdrew from it. It will not affect the student’s GPA.
After midsemester, students can withdraw from the entire semester but not from an individual course through the second to last day of the semester. A grade of “WP” (withdraw while passing) or a “WF” (withdraw while failing) will be assigned for each course at the end of the semester. These grades do not affect the student’s GPA.
To drop or withdraw from individual classes, click on the Enrollment tile in GullNet and select Enrollment: Drop Classes. Make sure to finalize it and then verify the course was successfully dropped by viewing your class schedule Student Center in GullNet.
To drop or withdraw from all classes in a semester, click on the Enrollment tile in GullNet and select Withdraw from University to complete the form. You should receive an automated email confirming receipt of your request and a second email once it has been processed.
