You can also use the tram option on the left menu to view tram locations in real time.
Students with Food or Housing Insecurity
Any student who faces challenges in securing food or reliable housing, which may affect their academic performance, is encouraged to contact the Office of Student Affairs (Hahn University Center, 232, studentaffairs@sandiego.edu or (619) 260-4588). Please visit the USD Food Pantry and Torero Closet website for additional information including the short registration form.
Law Student in Need Fund
Through the generosity of donors, the School of Law has established the Law Student in Need Fund to provide direct support for law students who are facing emergency circumstances that place in jeopardy their ability to complete their legal education. Additional funds have become available for student applicants and we are happy to announce the reopening of the Law Student in Need Fund application. Please visit the Law Student in Need Fund website for the funding guidelines and a link to the application.
Law students are also eligible to apply to the Toreros Together Emergency Fund for Students. Law students who wish to apply for this fund should first apply to the Law Student in Need Fund. If you are not fully funded or need additional resources, you can apply to the Toreros Together Emergency Fund for Students here.
Applicants may not seek funding from both the Law Student in Need Fund and Toreros Together Emergency Fund for the same expense (i.e. cannot double-dip) unless the applicant is either denied or the total cost of the expense is not fully covered by one or the other.
