Salisbury University launches Pell Grant program

SALISBURY, Md. – Salisbury University is making it easier for freshmen who qualify for a federal Pell Grant to attend.

They are launching a new program called the Sea Gull Pell Promise, which will offer free tuition for four years. SU will cover any tuition costs remaining once eligible students’ scholarships, grants, and benefits are applied.

To qualify, prospective students must apply for admission directly out of high school with a minimum 3.75 high school grade point average and qualify for a Pell Grant by submitting the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Funding will be renewable up to four years (eight semesters) for recipients who register as full-time students, maintain satisfactory academic progress as degree-seeking students, and continue to qualify for the federal Pell Grant.
