More than 1000 student organizations. Fifteen residence halls with state-of-the-art facilities. Thousands of events, from concerts and football games to film screenings and lectures. And it’s all set in the heart of one of the world’s greatest cities. Welcome to Texas!
There’s always something to dive into on the Forty Acres. Students have access to museums, music venues, libraries and activity centers. Get to know some of the hot spots on our campus!
Thriving economy? Check. Internationally renowned music and art scene? Check. Open- minded community? Check. Big blue skies and stunning sunsets? You bet. Longhorns are proud to call Austin home, and it’s easy to see why! The capital of Texas has tons of opportunities to be creative, enjoy the outdoors, indulge in entertainment and advance in your career.
On the Forty Acres or around the globe, Longhorn traditions bind us together. Whether you’re a first-year student or a proud Texas Ex, we wear burnt orange, raise our horns and shout “Hook Em!”
Students learn better when their living space is safe, clean and attractive. That’s why we work hard to create a positive, comfortable and inclusive environment on the Forty Acres. We offer high-quality and diverse food options and living arrangements to ensure you have the best academic experience.
Hello summer! What are your plans for the summer break? For TSMA Sophie, its a mix of part-time jobs, hanging out with friends and running fun errands around her hometown. One thing that Sophie is sure of though, is that she can’t wait to be back on campus! Have an amazing summer and see y’all in the fall 😇🧡🪩🍉
