Alum success story

Success story Nicklaus Arra smiling in a cap and gown at USD.

Being a Pennsylvania native, I get the "WHY SOUTH DAKOTA?" question all the time. USD went above and beyond to coordinate my in-person visit, they relieved any doubts about moving halfway across the county and connected me with current grad students to answer my questions. The program is top-notch with an affordable cost, it is a hidden gem led by renowned audiologists who teach, conduct research and supervise clinic in their expertise.
