Catawba College is a college in Salisbury, North Carolina (United States), with roots going back to 1851. Its 276-acre campus is close to Charlotte, Winston-Salem and Greensboro, and uses geothermal and solar energy.

Catawba offers more than 70 academic programmes. Undergraduate areas include accounting, biology, business and economics, chemistry, communication arts and media, environment and sustainability, nursing, psychology, sport and health sciences, teacher education and theatre arts; students can also design an individualised major. Graduate degrees include an MBA and several master's programmes (MHS, MS, MSPM). The college has 24 NCAA Division II athletic teams.

International students apply online and are encouraged to apply at least three months before the start of term so they have time to obtain the I-20 and student visa; entry deadlines are 1 July for fall, 1 November for spring and 1 April for summer. Non-US citizens are eligible for all merit- and talent-based scholarships. On-campus housing is guaranteed for all four years.
