Below is from an IBO document. It may help you to understand more about Math SL and HL:

Mathematics SL
This course caters for students who already possess knowledge of basic mathematical concepts, and who are equipped with the skills needed to apply simple mathematical techniques correctly. The majority of these students will expect to need a sound mathematical background as they prepare for future studies in subjects such as chemistry, economics, psychology and business administration.

Mathematics HL
This course caters for students with a good background in mathematics who are competent in a range of analytical and technical skills. The majority of these students will be expecting to include mathematics as a major component of their university studies, either as a subject in its own right or within courses such as physics, engineering and technology. Others may take this subject because they have a strong interest in mathematics and enjoy meeting its challenges and engaging with its problems.

Need help from you all that know IBDP.
If an admission requirement says something like " IBDP Math HL or SL", what would you do? Do you think a SL would just be fine?
I have checked the universities ...

Howabout Mathematical Studies (SL)?
Any limitations for using it to apply for the university programs?

In HK, if the faculty put Maths HL/SL on admission requirement, it means they are forced by the management to put SL to expand their student catchment to fill up all spaces. The faculty prefers HL, full-stop.

Predicted score first and then consider HL vs SL of critical subject(s).

I am not 100% sure, but it is more suitable for students won't take Maths subject in university as the standard is pretty low.

Unless you would like to study something totally unrelated to mathematics, if not, don't choose Mathematical Studies.

Again from IBO document:

Mathematical studies SL
This course is available at standard level (SL) only. It caters for students with varied backgrounds and abilities. More specifically, it is designed to build confidence and encourage an appreciation of mathematics in students who do not anticipate a need for mathematics in their future studies. Students taking this course need to be already equipped with fundamental skills and a rudimentary knowledge of basic processes.
