Parking is very limited at UT Austin. All registered students are eligible to purchase a ‘C’ hangtag permit. Registered graduate students who are employed by UT for at least twenty hours per week (GRAs, TAs, and some fellowship holders) may request an ‘A’ hangtag permit online. Note that you will not be able to purchase an 'A' ticket until your work appointment begins. The graduate coordinator sends in a parking verification form to the parking office in late August. If you believe you qualify for ‘A’ parking and the parking office does not have your name, contact the graduate coordinator. For more information on eligibility, fees, location of the parking lots, or other information on parking, contact UT Parking.

They have detailed information regarding apartment guides, apartment finders, Austin-area utilities (electric, water, gas, etc.), average rental rates, rental terminology, rental procedures, and Austin-area bus routes and bus schedules for students. The ISSS also provides a list of questions to ask when searching for an apartment off-campus, and rental termination procedures.
