A UT Austin campus visit session consists of all three of the following activities and lasts about two-and-a-half hours.

• Information Session: An admissions counselor shares information about UT Austin, including why we’re consistently ranked among top universities and are a top destination for students from around the world.
• Student Q&A: Current UT Austin students answer questions about what life is really like on the Forty Acres. Come prepared with questions.
• Campus Walking Tour: Student-guided walking tours of campus for prospective students and families begin at the Undergraduate Admissions Center (John Hargis Hall). Given from the unique perspective of a current student, this is one of the best ways to get a feel for campus. Be sure to wear comfortable clothes and walking shoes; visitors walk about one mile on the tour.

Details about the location of the information session will be provided during the registration process. 

Prospective students or members of their family who require special mobility assistance should contact the Undergraduate Admissions Center at 512-475-7439 after registering for a campus visit online. Please contact us as soon as possible after registering if you need assistance.

Some colleges, schools and programs (like honors programs) offer information sessions, the chance to sit in on classes, and building tours for prospective students and their families. As most of these sessions are not offered each day, you may want to choose a scheduled academic session and plan the rest of your day on campus around that activity.

**Sign up for most of these information sessions when you register online for a campus visit. Some sessions and meetings require individual appointments.**
