Thanks for Helping UT Austin Shine Bright

Whether attending on scholarship, being inspired by some of the world’s greatest faculty or getting unparalleled hands-on learning opportunities, every Longhorn benefits from philanthropy in some way, both during their time on campus and throughout their careers.

Giving back in any way — big or small — helps preserve UT’s first-rate education and helps nurture future generations of Longhorn leaders.

More than 88,000 alumni and friends supported UT Austin last year. On Thanks Day, we show our appreciation to everyone who helps the university shine bright. Take a look at what Longhorns are saying about how your generosity helps change the world:

FACT: If @UTAustin survived on tuition alone, it would shut down the first week of November every year. #UTThanksDay @hookedontexas
