Tuition & Aid
At the University of San Diego, we recognize that a college education is often one of the largest investments a family makes. With that in mind, USD is committed to working with families to make an extraordinary education both affordable and accessible for all students. We believe that cost should not be a barrier to college enrollment, and should never be a hindrance from the application process. The links below explain in detail some options that USD offers to help families afford an excellent education and experience as a Torero.
