residential life
All students live in new, fully-furnished, private apartments, a short distance away from UATX’s downtown Austin campus. Our students are clustered together in UATX-specific blocks with RA's and appointed staff on site. Our residential building offers a great residential life experience, with extensive facilities and amenities for work and play. At UATX, students are required to live in University housing during their freshman and sophomore years.
The student apartments are located in Austin's vibrant West Campus neighborhood, chosen for its unparalleled student culture. The area has a wide range of cafes, restaurants, shopping, and entertainment options. The location allows students to live together in their UATX community while also enjoying the“college town” feel for which Austin is already well known.
The University provides a private shuttle bus service to and from campus, specifically designed to fit our students’ busy schedules. There is also a public bus line that connects students to campus. Some students also enjoy walking or biking/scootering to and from campus along the scenic route past the Texas State Capitol Building.

apartments
All UATX students have their own single bedroom and bathroom, within a larger shared and fully furnished apartment of either 4 or 10 bedroom suites, as well as the use of a 3-floor community study space, reserved exclusively for UATX students.
Each apartment has a living room and full kitchen, equipped with full-size fridges, a microwave, stove, oven, and dishwasher, as well as a washer and dryer. The building also offers a wide array of additional indoor and outdoor amenities and various spaces for activities and study, all to support a thriving and healthy residential community. The University has purposefully chosen this residential space as part of our 'Urban Campus' concept. These extensive facilities form part of the network of spaces and services available to UATX students as part of their college experience.
