The objective of this research is to describe university students' perceptions on university social responsibility (USR) strategies with a focus on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) enrolled in a religious university in Chile. This research considers a non-probabilistic sample composed of 316 students from various academic programs enrolled in a university that claims to include religious principles in its decisions. An exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was applied, coefficients of internal consistency were measured, and statistical differences
were examined. The results show statistical variations by sex and age. It is concluded that young people value the strategies implemented by universities on USR and SDGs, especially those that encourage participation with a social orientation. Finally, it is necessary to develop research that delves into the core values promoted by Catholic universities for a better understanding of the phenomenon under study.
