FRESH@USD:
Finding Resources Enhancing Success and Health at USD
The FRESH@USD program offers a variety of sessions designed specifically to assist first-year students with the transition to college. New USD first-year students will have the opportunity to attend sessions of their choosing during their first fall semester in college.
Session topics cover the gamut of issues that new first-year students are likely to encounter, including faculty expectations, time management, study skills, places to go and things to do in San Diego, choosing a major, health and safety at college, and the unique history and character of USD.
Summary:
- Over 35 sessions offered specifically for entering first-year students in the fall
- Supplement to preceptorial academic course

- Online registration will allow students to sign up for sessions up to two weeks in advance or as late as noon the day before the session if space permits.
