Housing

By reserving your hotel room via the link we will email to you, you may take advantage of the special reduced hotel room rate and extras (free wifi access in your room and free parking) that we negotiated for our participants at the Sheraton Austin Hotel. A single room will be available for $139.00 plus tax (currently 15%) per night and a double room (shared by 2 people) will be available for $69.50 plus tax (currently 15%) per person per night.

Please be aware that (based on availability) rooms will be available at our reduced rate 3 days before the School starts - however - our reduced rate does not extend past the dates of the School.

Please note if you are receiving financial support from the USPAS to cover your sleeping room: the USPAS will only pay for your room during the dates of the program. If you arrive earlier or stay later than those dates, you are responsible for paying the extra cost.

Airport and Ground Transportation

This link from the hotel tells you which airport to use and gives contact info and pricing for Super Shuttle and taxis.
