Important Reminders

PARKING:
Parking passes can be purchased in advance online. We recommend parking in the West Lot and from there you can take the free USD Tram up the hill to Mother Rosalie Hill Hall. Directions & Parking Instructions!

HEALTH INSURANCE: 
All USD full-time students are required to have health insurance. At the beginning of every academic year, students need to decide to enroll in or waive out of the USD Student Health Insurance Plan (SHIP). The Fall 2023 deadline to waive is September 11, 2023. If you do not submit a waiver by this date, you will be enrolled in the 2023-24 annual student health insurance plan, if you are qualified as full-time.
