AU is committed to ensuring that students are prepared for their transition from campus to career, graduate school, or service. Spartan Attic is an on-campus clothes closet that provides complimentary professional clothing, shoes, and accessories.

Spartan Attic is located in the Kimberly and James Hill Center for Student Success, which is south of the parking garage. Students may drop in during regular business hours (8 a.m.–5 p.m.) or by appointment.
If you are interested in supporting this effort, see the list of needed items here. If you would like to donate gently used professional clothing, contact the Career Services at 630-844-5403 or email career@aurora.edu.
As of May 2025, construction is underway for AU's new Learning Commons, making the parking spaces in front of the Hill Center for Student Success unavailable. For ease of access, donations can be dropped off at the Wackerlin Center.
