Career Closet
The College of Education maintains a Career Closet, offering donated business and business casual clothing available free of charge. Students looking for that perfect outfit for a meeting, interview, career fair and other job-related opportunities, are welcome to shop in person or contact edcareerengagement@austin.utexas.edu with questions!
The College of Education Career Closet is available Monday – Friday, 9-11 a.m. and 1-4 p.m. Students can come to the Student Affairs Front Desk (SZB 2.110) during these hours and someone will take them back to the career closet to shop for professional attire.
The closet is stocked with gently used professional clothing and limited accessories, including footwear. Students may select, try on and shop for any combination of items to meet their needs, and College of Education staff are on site to help look for specific items and sizes.
