Who should my student call for a safety emergency at UT Austin?
DIRECT ANSWER
Call 911 for an emergency; UTPD's non-emergency number is 512-471-4441.
UT's residence-hall safety guidance directs students to call 911 when they feel unsafe or face an emergency. For non-emergency UTPD matters, the published number is 512-471-4441. Residence-hall front desks and staff are also available 24/7 for building and resident support, but they are not a substitute for 911 in an immediate emergency.
