Welcome to the Longhorn Family!

Congratulations to your student on their acceptance into The University of Texas at Austin! 

Transfer Family Orientation for spring is available for 3 weeks and is a virtual self-paced program that introduces you to university leadership, professional staff and current students who will share important information and advice.
