Admissions Welcome Center
The Admissions Welcome Center serves as the front door to the university for prospective students and their families. Located on the ground floor of the Perry-Castañeda Library in the heart of campus, the center showcases the impact of a University of Texas at Austin educational experience and offers students a window into campus life. While in the center, check out a vibrant mural by Austin artist Judy Paul and see the Vo Family Auditorium, established by global businessman and proud Texas Ex Andrew Phong Vo, who founded the Texas Iron Spikes.
