While I can't post about what it's like to go to college at UT (Austin), I can post about experiences I've had. The school which was founded in 1883 is recognized as a top college in the country. It often falls under the category of "the new Ivy League". I have been on campus for everything from protests, the annual Longhorn run, college & alumni-affiliated events, strolling the campus, and a few other things. It has always been a wonderful experience. Faculty, staff, and students alike all boasting their Longhorn pride. Hook 'Em Horns!!! What an extraordinarily beautiful campus for strolling from the lush greens to incredible architecture that's also stood the test of time. Sculptures and artwork adorn the campus throughout, there's always something new to see. Sunday strolls around the campus grounds are one of my favorite things to do.

From the moment I arrived, I was greeted by a sea of beautifully styled, bright and beautiful fascinators and hats, each one more charming than the last. The attention to detail in everyone's attire set the tone for the afternoon - pastels, polka dots, and neon. The tables were a vision of loveliness - tiers of sweet treats that were as lovely to look at as they were to consume. Delicate pastries, dainty petit four desserts, and perfectly portioned confections paired in concert with the variety of teas offered. Laughter flowed easily, cameras came out often, and there was a shared appreciation for this tea tradition mixed with personal individualized styling. The hats and fascinators added a playful elegance. We truly felt like we were having an English High tea. In addition, the tables were a sight to behold...layers of sweet treats that delighted both the eyes and the palate. There were delicate pastries, dainty petits fours, and perfectly-sized confections, all beautifully coordinated with an array of teas. The sisterly atmosphere made the tea uniquely memorable. Laughter was flowing effortlessly; cameras frequently captured those unforgettable moments. The hats and fascinators brought a touch of playful elegance. It was a graceful convergence of fashion, sweetness, and sisterhood. The tea wasn't just about the food and drink, it was about connection and celebrating each together.

That aside, the new student orientation was very well organized and seamless!! I loved that they had incoming freshman partner up as roommates for the two day event. And upper classmates were everywhere assisting and directing during the event. Breakout sessions were informative and interactive which is a huge plus in my book. Students with registration holds were allowed to resolve them during the event and were offered assistance. The kids got to sample what their next four years would be like on campus. A huge benefit for kids traveling away from home for the first time

Their programs in communications, business, physical therapy, and geology/geography are particularly well thought of. I can't speak to the housing situation, but the campus itself is beautiful, with the hilly terrain, well landscaped areas, and the San Marcos river itself. And yeah, while it does have a rep as a party school, so does UT at Austin, and that doesn't seem to hurt anything. (grin!) If you're a parent considering this school for your kids, it's worth a visit at the very least.

I spend so much time on business matters because of their mistakes. Another review mentioned they are condescending and rude, which is true. They repeatedly burden their mistakes on the students, and I have to get involved. The only good experience has been with teachers and the registrar's office. However, the registrar's office needs to get up to date with the times and allow students to drop classes online. Business Services, Financial Aid and Advising offices are the biggest hassles. Their billing could be more clear as well. I am college-educated from a private university, and I have a kid at a top-ranking school, and this is not even close to how a university should be run.

My cohort became a small family, we had some disagreements but at the end of the day were always there for each other (instructors included). As for my reasoning why I put 4 stars instead of 5... If my rating was solely based on the PTA program I would've given 5 stars. Let's just start by saying the financial aid department is a HOT MESS. I can't even begin to tell you guys how many issues I had. Whether it was constantly being notified about a balance (which was paid for), having a member of financial aid accuse my mother of not signing documents correctly (parent loan) or going to financial aid meetings and having them say, "everything looks good, I'm not sure why you were scheduled for a meeting," and lastly them not taking off certain fees. I met with a different person almost every time I went in to see someone. No one stuck around very long in general. Angela was the only good thing about the financial aid department.

However, I also went through a very serious incident that the university failed to address appropriately. While I was in the gym, professor Michael Farrell walked in and said: "I have a complaint. The h*es, b*tches, motherfers, and *n-words* playing music are unacceptable."* I immediately reported this to the school. Instead of taking decisive action, the administration had me meet with a staff member from Belonging, Equity, and Inclusion. She was kind and supportive, but it quickly became clear that the university's priority was for me to process my feelings -- not to hold Mr. Farrell accountable. The administration refused to give me updates on whether he faced consequences, and shockingly, I later saw him return to a campus event I was working at the very same semester. This made me feel extremely uncomfortable and unsafe. It was incredibly disappointing to see such harmful language and behavior treated so lightly. St. Edward's leadership had the chance to show that racism would not be tolerated on campus, but instead, they chose inaction. While I appreciated many parts of my time here, students deserve a university where they can trust that leadership will protect them from blatant racism.
