Why Attend

Experience Texas

The University of Texas is an exciting place and at Camp Texas, you’ll get to feel that excitement. Some of the university’s most celebrated professors will travel out to share fun, interactive mini-lectures, then sit down for lunch with you. UT Administrators from Housing, Financial Services, Rec Sports, and even big-wigs such as the president and provost of the university, come to field questions and give helpful hints. And the inspiring crew of counselors includes student leaders from around campus ready to help you take your own steps as a campus leader.

Make Friends

UT students come to Camp Texas to make friends. Between structured team challenges and relaxing free time, opportunities to connect with other freshmen abound. Bond with your group while competing in the Water Olympics or stay up late into the night chatting with a cabin mate. Meet your future neighbors and classmates during the Dorm/College Match-up. Whether from a small town or a big city, one thing’s for sure—you’ll arrive on campus with a host of new friends.

Get Blobbed

More than anything else, Camp Texas is about having fun. Whether playing volleyball during free time, enjoying dinner theater lakeside, or dancing at the luau, we guarantee you won’t be bored. With a rope swing, waterslide, and floating dock at the lake, cooling off from the Texas sun has never been so entertaining. Then there’s the Blob—a giant balloon-like bag of air onto which “blobbers” jump to catapult each other into the water. There’s no better way to end your summer than by beginning your college career with Camp Texas.
