About
The Division of Student Affairs is the hub of student life and well-being at The University of Texas at Austin. The team inspires all students — undergraduate, graduate and professional — to live the Longhorn life through its uniquely-designed programs, spaces and resources. They serve every student through physical health, mental health and well-being services; new student and family orientations; recreational sports; two university unions; and the University’s official parent association. The Division's departments support 1,100+ student organizations; student governance organizations; student outreach, legal, and disability and access services. The team also provides student employment, leadership, first generation and volunteer programs.
Student volunteers at The Project, UT Austin’s largest annual day of service.
Your gift to the Division of Student Affairs NOW Fund will have an immediate and wide-ranging impact. The NOW Fund is our unrestricted fund, used for:
- Urgent student needs
- Student services
- Innovative programs
The Counseling and Mental Health Center supports student mental health through a variety of services.
The NOW Fund may provide support to vital student resources, such as:
• Counseling and Mental Health Center
• UT Outpost, on-campus food pantry and career closet
UT Outpost ribbon cutting for the expanded space in the Student Services Building.
"The UT Outpost is such an amazing resource on campus. Being a college student can be incredibly taxing — both mentally and financially — so having a resource specifically designed to support students is invaluable. Knowing there’s a place that can help ease even the smallest bit of stress about where my next meal will come from or how I’ll afford it makes a huge difference in life and makes the college experience easier."
