Choices That Matter

During your time at USD, you’ll be presented with all sorts of choices: what to major in; where to live; what clubs and organizations to join; who to spend time with; what to do with your evenings and weekends; where and how much to study. One important key to making wise decisions is to remember that these are choices.

The choices you make while on campus can set you up not only for an excellent college career, but a life-time of success. Other choices, however, can negatively impact both your standing at the university and your future.

Choices matter. Make yours based on your values, your faith, your morals, and your sense of self.

Three areas that deserve particular thought include Wellness, Relationships and Community. Explore the links below to learn more. Click here to download the Choices That Matter Brochure (pdf).
