Aveda Arts and Sciences Institute Austin is a cosmetology and esthiology school on Middle Fiskville Road in Austin's North Loop neighborhood, between UT Austin and the Domain. Programs include cosmetology, esthiology, and instructor training in a hands-on clinic environment consistent with Aveda's plant-based professional focus. The school provides no on-campus housing, so all students arrange their own rentals in Austin. The North Loop and Hyde Park neighborhoods are the most convenient, though many students choose East Austin or Burnet Road for lower rents. Students relocating to Austin should begin their housing search well before their program start date.
Aveda Arts and Sciences Institute Austin does not provide on-campus housing of any kind. All students enrolled in cosmetology, esthiology, or instructor training programs are responsible for arranging their own housing in the Austin area prior to starting their program.
Because there is no campus housing, all students live off campus. Students typically rent apartments or rooms in the neighborhoods surrounding the school's location on Middle Fiskville Road in the North Loop and Hyde Park area, or in more affordable districts further north or east.
Austin's rental market is competitive year-round. Students should begin searching at least 60 to 90 days before their program start date and be prepared to act quickly when a suitable unit becomes available. Month-to-month and shorter-term leases exist in Austin but carry a price premium over standard 12-month agreements.
Housing policies change frequently. Always verify current requirements directly with Aveda Arts & Sciences Institute Austin before signing a lease.
Students who start their housing search two to three months before their program start date will have the most options and the best chance of securing a unit close to the Middle Fiskville Road campus. Austin's rental market moves quickly, and desirable apartments in the Hyde Park and North Loop areas rarely sit vacant for more than a couple of weeks before being leased. Acting early also leaves time to compare multiple properties and negotiate on rent or move-in fees before committing. Starting the search early is especially important for students relocating to Austin from out of state.
Austin's rental market sees its strongest demand from April through July as university students from UT Austin and other local schools compete for the same rental stock. Aveda students whose programs begin in late summer or fall will be searching during this competitive window and should expect higher asking rents and less negotiating room on lease terms. Scheduling apartment tours on weekdays and responding to listings within hours rather than days is important during this stretch.
Students who need housing on short notice can look at larger apartment complexes along North Lamar Boulevard, Burnet Road, and Airport Boulevard, which tend to have more consistent availability. Room rental platforms and co-living arrangements in East Austin are also viable options for students who need flexible month-to-month terms or lower upfront costs. Some students opt for short-term furnished rentals for the first month while they conduct an in-person search for a longer-term unit.
The North Loop neighborhood sits close to the school and has a mix of older bungalows converted to rentals and small apartment complexes. It has a laid-back creative vibe that appeals to cosmetology students, with coffee shops and vintage stores along North Loop Boulevard.
Hyde Park is a well-established residential neighborhood just south of the school with tree-lined streets and a mix of rental houses and small multifamily buildings. It is popular with students from multiple Austin schools and walkable to several coffee shops, restaurants, and grocery stores on Duval Street and 45th Street.
Crestview is a mid-century neighborhood northwest of the campus anchored by the Crestview Station mixed-use development. It offers reasonable rents for Austin, easy access to the Domain area, and a MetroRail stop for car-free commuting options.
East Austin east of I-35 has become a popular choice for students who want lower rents and a vibrant dining and bar scene. The commute to Middle Fiskville Road is typically 10 to 15 minutes by car or rideshare, and the area has a strong supply of room rentals and co-living arrangements suited to shorter program durations.
Common questions from students searching for housing.

The University of Texas at Austin drops roughly 50,000 Longhorns into one of the country's most magnetic cities, on a campus known as the Forty Acres and crowned by the 307-foot Tower that glows burnt orange after wins. Campus runs right up against Guadalupe Street, the strip students call the Drag, and just south the…
