Longhorns thrive when they feel supported, connected and equipped for the journey ahead. The Division of Student Affairs helps make that possible.

We create environments that promote students’ health, well-being and safety; develop accountability; and cultivate community and deep connection to the University. Through programs, services and daily interactions, we strive to ensure every student feels equipped to succeed. Our work establishes the foundation for students to reach their full potential, and prepares them to become productive citizens and leaders.

Our departments 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. We support 1,100+ student organizations; student governance organizations; student outreach, legal, and disability and access services. We also provide student employment, leadership, first generation and volunteer programs.
