ACC Round Rock Campus Enhancements Underway: New Welcome and Care Centers Set to Open by 2025

Renovation has started on the Student Affairs Center at the Austin Community College District’s Round Rock Campus. The project began in May after obtaining a permit from the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation. It includes the addition of new Welcome and Student Care centers, which will serve as the first point of contact for students seeking various support services.

The work is being carried out in Building 1000, which will accommodate both the Welcome and Student Care centers. These centers aim to centralize support services, making it easier for students to get help. Pfluger Architects is finalizing the design, and the project will soon move to the contractor solicitation phase.

The facilities are slated to open by fall 2025 and are projected to cost $5.5 million. This renovation is part of the college’s Maintenance and Operations bond program, funded by existing college resources to enhance facilities.

The concept for these centers was first introduced at the ACC Highland Campus in October 2023. The Welcome Center assists prospective, new, and current students and their families by providing information about the college’s programs and services. The Student Care Center offers crucial services like food, housing, transportation, and legal aid.
