Admitted Students

CONGRATULATIONS! Now that you have been admitted to Austin College, here’s what you should do next.

Austin College Experience (ACE)

All admitted students and their parents are invited to come to campus April 8, 2017 for Austin College Experience (ACE). During this full-day Saturday event, students will learn more about academics and student life—while experiencing the campus environment and atmosphere firsthand.

Parents will hear presentations on the transitions from high school to college and learn more about the Austin College living and learning community. Financial aid staff also will be available to speak with parents.

Come; ask questions; meet faculty, current students, and other future ‘Roos; and discover opportunities. Be part of the Austin College Experience!

* Acceptance of College Principles: Austin College is committed to the ideals of community membership, individual responsibility, shared goals and expectations, and the highest standards of integrity. When you receive an acceptance letter, you also will receive a Matriculation Agreement and Commitment to Academic Integrity Form, which should be signed and returned to the college.
