Deliberation is one of the improntant values of the fourth principle of Pancasila,  which emphasizes respecting opinions, avoiding coercion, and prioritizing common interests in decision-making. In student life, deliberationis often applied in classroom activites, group work, organizations, and committees. This study aimed to determine the role of  deliberation in student decision-making, its importance, the obstacles faced, and the application of the fourth principle of Pancasila. This research used a descriptive method with a simple quantitative approach. Data were collected through questionnaires, observation, and documentation. The results showed that deliberation plays an important role in providing student with opportunites  to express their opinions and respect different views. Deliberration can also help reduce conflicts because decisions are made through joint discussions. However, several obstacles remain, including passive members, dominance in discussions diffrences of opinion that are difficult to reconcile, and limited time. Therefore, student need to develop a habit of  deliberation so that the values of the fourth principle of Pancasila  can be applied in their daily lives.
