south austin The South Austin Campus is the newest ACC campus until Round Rock opens next year. This campus serves as a south location for students interested in Visual Communication classes. Students seeking an associate degree in 2D or 3D animation, graphic design, or computer illustration, but who don’t live near the Northridge Campus which also has many of the VisCom courses, can attend classes at SAC. This campus is also headquarters for the English for Speakers of Other Languages Department. ESOL classes offer instruction in writing, grammar and oral communication to students whose first language is not English. This program also offers classes for deaf and hard of hearing students taught in sign language. This allows students to attend classes without the use of an interpreter. ACC has also partnered with AISD’s Crockett High School located across the street from the campus to create the Crockett-ACC Automotive Center. Automotive classes are available to both high school and college students through the new center.
