Visit the Forty Acres.
Here’s how.
We encourage prospective undergraduates and their families to visit The University of Texas at Austin’s campus, nicknamed the Forty Acres after its original footprint.
Prospective Freshman Sessions and Tours
High school students considering The University of Texas at Austin are best served by a Prospective Freshman Session and Tour. An admissions officer shares details about the university, after which current students lead a campus walking tour.
Special Interest Sessions
Want to learn more about a particular college, school or academic program? Interested in a residence hall tour? Register for an interest session taking place the day of your visit.
Prospective Student Campus Tours
Prospective transfer students should take part in a Prospective Student Campus Tour. Pro tip: These events are also a great option for prospective freshmen who’d like to visit on a Saturday.
Other Visitors
The university also welcomes prospective graduate students, the general public and groups of 10–100 visitors to its Visitor Center.
