VISITING SAN DIEGO BARTELL HOTELS University of San Diego has formed a partnership with Bartell Hotels. Richard Bartell, a School of Law alumnus, has opened the doors of his eight premier hotels to the USD community. The USD–Bartell Hotels partnership means you receive a special rate when you book your stay at one of the conveniently located Bartell Hotels in San Diego. A portion of the room cost comes back to USD to support student scholarships, promote university events and marketing efforts and create community awareness about the partnership.

“We’re opening our doors to you and contributing to USD every time you visit.”

— Richard Bartell ’75 School of Law

To take advantage of these special rates and USD family amenities, visit bartellhotels.com/ usdpartnership or call 800.345.9995 to book your stay at any of the Bartell Hotels.

Not attending a Pre-O trip? Sign up for an Outdoor Adventures trip during the semester! sandiego.edu/outdoor-adventures

Class Schedules Released Your first-year student should receive his or her class schedule and Living Learning Community (LLC) assignment by the middle of this month.

Their LLC and courses are selected based on the First-Year Student Advising Questionnaire. If your student has any concerns, he or she may schedule a call with a course advisor. They will also meet with their academic advisor during OLE! Weekend and will be able to make changes at that time.

Interested in viewing your student’s records?

Through the MySanDiego portal FERPA authorization, your student may grant you access to his or her records on your personalized MyUSDStudent portal. For a step-by-step how-to, visit the Resources tab on the Parent and Family Relations website.

Student portal: my.sandiego.edu Website: sandiego.edu/parents

Start Talking Your student will receive his/her roommates’ contact information by the end of the month. Encourage them to coordinate room items or decor prior to shopping. my.sandiego.edu

Academic Experience

So much to do! Where to start?

Transitioning to USD

It’s never too early to start building relationships with professors. Advise your student to visit professors during office hours to get questions answered!

The campus is full of activities and opportunities to meet students, such as Torero Welcome Week beginning Sept. 6 and the Alcalá Bazaar on Sept. 11. Campus Recreation also offers intramural sports clubs and recreation/fitness classes. Urge your student to get involved!

Your student may undergo an emotional roller coaster.

Refer to the “W-Curve” to put your student’s transition into perspective. Also, Residential Life will conduct Third Week Check-Ins beginning the week of Sept. 17.

All first-year students will attend a small community meeting with the USD Wellness staff, providing a space for dialogue about wellness and their transition to USD.

Making Healthy Choices

“Get involved!” is the best advice.

Students are faced with many decisions about how to best use their time, how they will take care of themselves and even what choices they are going to make around alcohol or other drug use. You play an important role in encouraging healthy decisionmaking and supporting help-seeking.

New students may begin to experience bouts of homesickness around this time. Encourage your student to get connected to the USD community by joining a club or organization and by attending on-campus events. To see all clubs offered at USD, visit the Student Leadership, Involvement and Changemaking Center. And don’t forget to attend Homecoming and Family Weekend!

There will be a Thanksgiving Feast on Nov. 22 in Mission Crossroads for residents remaining on campus.

Students can find out about available tutoring or sign up for Student Success Coaching in the Center for Student Success. Also, encourage your student to utilize faculty office hours and department tutoring centers as they prepare for midterm and final exams. sandiego.edu/usdcss

Need a ride?

Students are preparing for final exams — anxiety and stress are high. The Center for Health and Wellness Promotion is a great place to learn strategies to stay stress-free. Also, look for the different activities planned by the Torero Program Board (TPB) to help students take a study break.

If your student needs a ride to the San Diego International Airport, we recommend Super Shuttle. Super Shuttle offers special rates to USD students. Also, many students simply share a taxi, Lyft or Uber. For more information, email:

Congratulations to our graduates and to their families and supporters!

Does your student need a summer job or internship?

Too many things going on at the same time?

The Career Development Center can help with job or internship searches.

Encourage your student to make an appointment or simply walk in!

Students can better manage multiple demands by meeting with their advisors, talking with their resident assistants and exploring healthy choices from the Center for Health and Wellness Promotion.

Have a wonderful and safe summer vacation!!!

Enjoy the summer and your student’s homecoming.

Your student is home for the summer months. Listen to reflections on the past year, noting accomplishments and challenges, as well as the balancing of both old and new friendships.

Keep your student connected.

Parent Ambassadors

Students who remain connected to programs, resources and groups designed to enhance learning will be off to a great second year at USD.
