In the closet, students can find items such as suits, blazers, dress pants, skirts, ties, blouses, and button-down shirts.

WHAT IS THE CAREER CLOSET?

The TXST Career Closet provides a way for students to access affordable attire for attending events such as career fairs, interviews, networking events, and other career related needs. Our goal is to provide students in need with attire to look their best and project confidence while working towards their career goals.

WHAT DO I GET FROM THE CAREER CLOSET?

The Career Closet will give 1 professional outfit for FREE to any TXST student! These items will not need to be returned to our office.

HOW CAN I VISIT THE CAREER CLOSET?

The Career Closet is open during drop-in hours, Monday - Friday from 10:00 - 3:00 pm.

TIPS BEFORE YOU ARRIVE

  • Plan ahead: As we are a donation-based service, all sizes, colors, and styles are subject to availability. We recommend planning ahead and visiting 5 days before your event.
  • Be Intentional: Look through your closet first and note items you might need to complete an outfit. We do not offer shoes, socks, or belts.
  • Measure yourself ahead of time: We do not measure or size students.
  • Be respectful of the service: The purpose of the closet is not to provide last-minute items out of convenience. If you have professional attire at your home, please plan accordingly to bring it to campus for a career fair, class presentation, or other social event occurring on-campus.
