The broadcasting program at UT is incredible. After competing in pagenats for so long it was clear that my ultimate goal was to have my own talk show. The College of Communication at UT is one of the best in the Nation. Also, the Vietnamese Student Association is huge. As someone who is currently raising money for Wounded Vietnam War Veterans, having a large VSA is a great support system. UT has over 50,000 students, everyone fits in. Everyone can call it home.

I met a lot of really great people even though I am a non-traditional student. I never felt out of place. I encourage all to attend college.

We have the most exciting football games. Everyone shows their spirit as they walk around cheering while wearing burnt orange. Everyone is prideful here, and it makes the over atmosphere on campus that much more delightful. We have so many clubs and programs on campus to join if you want to make friends. There is something for everyone. The people are really nice here. I made friends quickly. We have an amazing Women's Rugby Team (which I have joined). We have downtown Austin at our fingertips which is amazing. UT Austin was a great choice for me.

UT is huge. There's always something going on and there are extracirricular opportunities for every interest. No matter what you're into, you can find a club that suits your interests.

Diversity is what makes this campus thrive. Different cultures mean different ideas and therefore creating an unlimited potential of learning and understanding.

Sixth street, outdoor sports,tom shoes, friendly people, coffe shoes, smart cars, and the fact that Austin people accept you as you are.

Variety of student backgrounds, football team is one of the bes in the nation, parties, fun and very friendly people in the city, right next to "The Drag" where most people shop or hang out with friends, hundreds of clubs and organizations to join, impossible NOT to make friends
Anna
We have the greatest combination of all resources: great town, great culture, great traditions, great environmental surroundings and a great reputation. UT Austin gives you the best "big university" experience in texas.

There is nothing that is more thrilling than coming together with 100,000 of your closest friends and cheering on one of the best football teams in the nation. When I talk about UT, I brag about the football games. I am a sports fanatic and I have never attended a sporting event as fun as a UT home game.
