ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
This document is in two parts. The first part is this prospectus supplement, which describes the terms of the notes and the offer and sale of the notes
and also adds to and updates information contained in the accompanying prospectus and in the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus
supplement and the accompanying prospectus. The second part, the accompanying prospectus, gives more general information about securities we may
offer from time to time, some of which does not apply to the notes or this offering. To the extent any inconsistency or conflict exists between the
information included in this prospectus supplement and the information included in the accompanying prospectus or the documents incorporated by
reference into this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus prior to the date of this prospectus supplement, the information included in this
prospectus supplement updates and supersedes the information included in the accompanying prospectus or such documents incorporated by reference into
this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, as applicable. This prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus incorporate by
reference important business and financial information about us that is not included in or delivered with this prospectus supplement or the accompanying
prospectus.
Notice to Prospective Investors in the European Economic Area
None of this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus nor any related free writing prospectus is a prospectus for the purposes of the
Prospectus Regulation (as defined below). This prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and any related free writing prospectus have been
prepared on the basis that any offer of notes in any Member State of the European Economic Area (the "EEA") will only be made to a legal entity which is
a qualified investor under the Prospectus Regulation ("Qualified Investors"). Accordingly any person making or intending to make an offer in that Member
State of notes which are the subject of the offering contemplated in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and any related free writing
prospectus may only do so with respect to Qualified Investors. Neither the Operating Partnership nor the underwriters have authorized, nor do they
authorize, the making of any offer of notes other than to Qualified Investors. The expression "Prospectus Regulation" means Regulation (EU) 2017/1129.
PROHIBITION OF SALES TO EEA RETAIL INVESTORS ­ The notes are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and
should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the EEA. For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one
(or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU, as amended ("MiFID II"); or (ii) a customer within the
meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97 (the "Insurance Distribution Directive"), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in
point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (iii) not a qualified investor as defined in the Prospectus Regulation. Consequently no key information document
required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014, as amended (the "PRIIPs Regulation") for offering or selling the notes or otherwise making them available to
retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the
EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.

49(2)(a) to (d) of the Financial Promotion Order, or who are any other persons to whom it may otherwise lawfully be made under the Financial Promotion
Order (all such persons together being referred to as "relevant persons"). In the United Kingdom, the notes offered hereby are only available to, and any

SUMMARY
This summary contains basic information about us, the notes and this offering. Because this is a summary, it does not contain all of the
information you should consider before making a decision to invest in the notes. You should carefully read this summary together with the more
detailed information and financial statements and notes thereto contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the
accompanying prospectus.
The Operating Partnership and the Company
We are a fully integrated, self-managed and self-administered equity real estate investment trust, or REIT, with expertise in the acquisition,
design, financing, development, construction management, leasing and management of student housing properties. Through our controlling interest in
the Operating Partnership, we are one of the largest owners, managers and developers of high quality student housing properties in the United States
in terms of beds owned and under management. As of September 30, 2019, our property portfolio contained 168 properties with approximately
113,400 beds. As of September 30, 2019, our property portfolio consisted of 128 owned off-campus properties that are in close proximity to colleges
and universities, 34 American Campus Equity (ACE®) properties operated under ground/facility leases and six on-campus participating properties
operated under ground/facility leases with the related university systems. Of the 168 properties, as of September 30, 2019, we had under development
three properties, which, when completed, will contain a total of approximately 11,300 beds. Our communities contain modern housing units and are
supported by a resident assistant system and other student-oriented programming, with many offering resort-style amenities. Through one of our
taxable REIT subsidiaries, we also provide construction management and development services, primarily for student housing properties owned by
colleges and universities, charitable foundations, and others.
As of September 30, 2019, also through one of our taxable REIT subsidiaries, we provided third-party management and leasing services for 37
properties that represented approximately 26,900 beds. Third-party management and leasing services are typically provided pursuant to management
contracts that have initial terms that range from one to five years. As of September 30, 2019, our total owned and third-party managed portfolio was
comprised of 205 properties with approximately 140,300 beds.
The Operating Partnership is a subsidiary of the Company. The general partner of the Operating Partnership is American Campus Communities
Holdings, LLC ("ACC Holdings"), which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. As of September 30, 2019, ACC Holdings held an
ownership interest in the Operating Partnership of less than 1%. The limited partners of the Operating Partnership are the Company and other limited
partners consisting of current and former members of management and nonaffiliated third parties. As of September 30, 2019, the Company owned an
approximate 99.6% limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership. As the sole member of ACC Holdings, which is the sole general partner
of the Operating Partnership, the Company has exclusive control of the Operating Partnership's day-to-day management. Management operates the
Company and the Operating Partnership as one business. The management of the Company consists of the same members as the management of the
Operating Partnership. The Company consolidates the Operating Partnership for financial reporting purposes, and the Company does not have any
significant assets other than its investment in the Operating Partnership. Therefore, the assets and liabilities of the Company and the Operating
Partnership are the same on their respective financial statements.
Our executive offices are located at 12700 Hill Country Blvd., Suite T-200, Austin, Texas 78738, and our telephone number is (512) 732-1000.

Certain Covenants
Various covenants will apply to the notes, including the following:

· ?We may not, in general, incur Indebtedness if the new Indebtedness
would cause the aggregate principal amount of our total
Indebtedness, excluding Intercompany Indebtedness, to be more
than 60% of our Total Assets and certain other assets.

· ?We may not incur Secured Debt if the new Secured Debt would
cause our total Secured Debt to be more than 40% of our Total
Assets and certain other assets.

· ?We are required to maintain Total Unencumbered Assets of at least
150% of our total Unsecured Debt. All investments by us in
unconsolidated joint ventures, unconsolidated limited partnerships,
unconsolidated limited liability companies and other
nonconsolidated entities will be excluded from Total
Unencumbered Assets to the extent that such investments would
have otherwise been included.

· ?We may not incur Indebtedness if the new Indebtedness would cause
our ratio of Consolidated Income Available for Debt Service to
Interest Expense for our most recently completed four fiscal
quarters to be less than 1.5 to 1, determined on a pro forma basis,
subject to certain assumptions.

· ?We may not consummate a merger, consolidation or sale of all or
substantially all of our assets.

These covenants are subject to a number of important exceptions and
qualifications. For further information and the definition of the terms
used above, see "Description of the Notes and Guarantee--Certain
Covenants" in this prospectus supplement.
No Limitation on Incurrence of New Debt
Subject to compliance with covenants relating to our aggregate secured
and unsecured debt, aggregate secured debt, maintenance of total
unencumbered assets and debt service coverage, the indenture will not
limit the amount of debt we may issue under the indenture or otherwise.
Ranking
The notes will be the direct, unsecured and unsubordinated
indebtedness of the Operating Partnership and will rank equally in right
of payment with all of the Operating Partnership's other unsecured and
unsubordinated indebtedness from time to time outstanding, and
effectively junior to (i) all of the liabilities and any preferred equity of
the Operating Partnership's subsidiaries, and (ii) all of the Operating
Partnership's debt that is secured by the Operating Partnership's assets,
to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt.

As of September 30, 2019, the Operating Partnership had outstanding
$2,552 million of unsecured indebtedness (excluding deferred financing
costs and unamortized original issue discount on unsecured notes) and
no secured indebtedness. As of September 30, 2019, the Operating
Partnership's subsidiaries had $1,578.9 million of total liabilities and no
preferred equity of such subsidiaries was outstanding.

Further Issuances

supplement, increase the principal amount of this series of notes under

the indenture and issue such additional debt securities, in which case
any additional debt securities so issued will have the same form and
terms (other than the date of issuance and, under certain circumstances,
the date from which interest thereon will begin to accrue), and will
carry the same right to receive accrued and unpaid interest, as the notes
offered by this prospectus supplement, and such additional debt
securities will form a single series with the notes offered by this
prospectus supplement.
No Public Market
The notes are a new issue of securities with no established trading
market. We do not intend to apply for listing of the notes on any
securities exchange or for quotation of the notes on any automated
dealer quotation system. The underwriters have advised us that they
intend to make a market in the notes after this offering is completed,
but they are not obligated to do so and may discontinue any market-
making at any time without notice to or consent of existing noteholders.
Book-Entry Form
The notes will be issued in book-entry only form and will be
represented by one or more permanent global certificates deposited with
a custodian for, and registered in the name of a nominee of, The
Depository Trust Company, commonly known as DTC, in New York,
New York. Beneficial interests in the global certificates representing
the notes will be shown on, and transfers will be effected only through,
records maintained by DTC and its direct and indirect participants and
such interests may not be exchanged for certificated notes, except in
limited circumstances.

You should read carefully the "Risk Factors" beginning on page S-5 of
this prospectus supplement, as well as the "Risk Factors" incorporated
by reference from our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended

RISK FACTORS
In addition to other information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and any free
writing prospectus issued by us, you should carefully consider the risks described below, and incorporated herein and therein by reference from our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, before making a decision to invest in the notes. These risks are not the only ones faced by us.
Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial could also materially and adversely affect our business, financial
condition, liquidity, results of operations and prospects. The trading price of the notes could decline due to any of these risks, and you may lose all or part
of your investment. This prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and the documents incorporated herein and therein by reference also contain
forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking
statements as a result of certain factors, including the risks faced by us described below and elsewhere in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying
prospectus and the documents incorporated herein and therein by reference. Please refer to the section below entitled "Forward-Looking Statements" in this
prospectus supplement.
Risks Related to this Offering
Our substantial indebtedness could materially and adversely affect us and the ability of the Operating Partnership to meet its debt service
obligations under the notes.
As of September 30, 2019, the Operating Partnership's total consolidated indebtedness was approximately $3,363.5 million. We have a $1 billion
unsecured revolving credit facility, under which approximately $647.9 million was available at September 30, 2019.
Our level of indebtedness and the limitations imposed on us by our debt agreements could have significant adverse consequences to holders of the
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1283630/000119312520009959/d872932d424b5.htm[1/17/2020 3:34:18 PM]


424B5
notes, including the following:

·
our cash flow may be insufficient to meet our debt service obligations with respect to the notes and our other indebtedness, which would

enable the lenders and other debtholders to accelerate the maturity of their indebtedness, or be insufficient to fund other important business
uses after meeting such obligations;


·
we may be unable to borrow additional funds as needed or on favorable terms;

·
we may be unable to refinance our indebtedness at maturity or earlier acceleration, if applicable, or the refinancing terms may be less

favorable than the terms of our original indebtedness or otherwise be generally unfavorable;

·
because a significant portion of our debt bears interest at variable rates, increases in interest rates could materially increase our interest

expense;


·
we may be forced to dispose of one or more of our properties, possibly on disadvantageous terms;

·
we may default on our secured indebtedness and the lenders may foreclose on our properties or our interests in the entities that own the

properties that secure such indebtedness and receive an assignment of rents and leases; and

·
we may violate restrictive covenants in our debt agreements, which would entitle the lenders and other debtholders to accelerate the maturity

of their indebtedness.
If any one of these events were to occur, our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and prospects, as well as the Operating
Partnership's ability to satisfy its obligations with respect to the notes, could be materially and adversely affected. Furthermore, foreclosures could create
taxable income without accompanying cash proceeds, a circumstance which could hinder the Company's ability to meet the REIT distribution requirements
imposed by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the "Code."

S-5
Table of Contents
The effective subordination of the notes may limit the Operating Partnership's ability to meet its debt service obligations under the notes.
The notes will be senior unsecured indebtedness of the Operating Partnership and will rank equally in right of payment with all of the Operating
Partnership's other senior unsecured indebtedness. However, the notes will be effectively subordinated in right of payment to all of the secured
indebtedness of the Operating Partnership to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness. While the indenture governing the notes
will limit our ability to incur additional secured indebtedness in the future, it will not prohibit us from incurring such indebtedness if we are in compliance
with certain financial ratios and other requirements at the time of its incurrence. In the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or
similar proceeding with respect to us, the holders of any secured indebtedness will be entitled to proceed directly against the collateral that secures the
secured indebtedness. Therefore, such collateral will not be available for satisfaction of any amounts owed under our unsecured indebtedness, including the
notes, until such secured indebtedness is satisfied in full. As of September 30, 2019, the Operating Partnership had no outstanding secured indebtedness.
The notes also will be effectively subordinated to all liabilities, whether secured or unsecured, and any preferred equity of the subsidiaries of the
Operating Partnership. In the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or similar proceeding with respect to any such subsidiary, the
Operating Partnership, as a common equity owner of such subsidiary, and therefore holders of our debt, including the notes, will be subject to the prior
claims of such subsidiary's creditors, including trade creditors, and preferred equity holders. As of September 30, 2019, the Operating Partnership's
subsidiaries had $1,578.9 million of total liabilities and no preferred equity of such subsidiaries was outstanding. Furthermore, while the indenture
governing the notes will limit the ability of our subsidiaries to incur additional unsecured indebtedness in the future, it will not prohibit our subsidiaries
from incurring such indebtedness if such subsidiaries are in compliance with certain financial ratios and other requirements at the time of its incurrence.
We may not be able to generate sufficient cash flow to meet our debt service obligations.
Our ability to meet our debt service obligations on, and to refinance, our indebtedness, including the notes, and to fund our operations, working
capital, acquisitions, capital expenditures and other important business uses, depends on our ability to generate sufficient cash flow in the future. To a
certain extent, our cash flow is subject to general economic, industry, financial, competitive, operating, legislative, regulatory and other factors, many of
which are beyond our control.
We cannot assure you that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that future sources of cash will be available to us in an
amount sufficient to enable us to meet our debt service obligations on our indebtedness, including the notes, or to fund our other important business uses.
Additionally, if we incur additional indebtedness in connection with future acquisitions or development projects or for any other purpose, our debt service
obligations could increase significantly and our ability to meet those obligations could depend, in large part, on the returns from such acquisitions or
projects, as to which no assurance can be given.
We may need to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness, including the notes, at or prior to maturity. Our ability to refinance our indebtedness

or obtain additional financing will depend on, among other things:


·
our financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and prospects and market conditions at the time; and


·
restrictions in the agreements governing our indebtedness.
As a result, we may not be able to refinance any of our indebtedness, including the notes, on favorable terms, or at all.
If we do not generate sufficient cash flow from operations, and additional borrowings or refinancings are not available to us, we may be unable to
meet all of our debt service obligations, including payments on the notes. As a result, we would be forced to take other actions to meet those obligations,
such as selling properties, raising equity or delaying capital expenditures, any of which could have a material adverse effect on us. Furthermore, we cannot
assure you that we will be able to effect any of these actions on favorable terms, or at all.

Despite our substantial outstanding indebtedness, we may still incur significantly more indebtedness in the future, which would exacerbate any or
all of the risks described above.
We may be able to incur substantial additional indebtedness in the future. Although the agreements governing our revolving credit facility and
certain other indebtedness do, and the indenture governing the notes will, limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness, these restrictions are subject to a
number of qualifications and exceptions and, under certain circumstances, debt incurred in compliance with these restrictions could be substantial. To the
extent that we incur substantial additional indebtedness in the future, the risks associated with our substantial leverage described above, including our
inability to meet our debt service obligations, would be exacerbated.
The Company has no significant operations, other than as the sole member of the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, and no
significant assets, other than its investment in the Operating Partnership.
The notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company. However, the Company has no significant operations, other than as the sole
member of the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, and no significant assets, other than its investment in the Operating Partnership.
Furthermore, the Company's guarantee of the notes will be effectively subordinated in right of payment to all liabilities, whether secured or unsecured, and
any preferred equity of its subsidiaries (including the Operating Partnership and any entity the Company accounts for under the equity method of
accounting). As of September 30, 2019, the Company's subsidiaries had $4,130.9 million of total liabilities and no preferred equity of such subsidiaries was
outstanding.
Federal and state statutes allow courts, under specific circumstances, to void guarantees and require holders of indebtedness and lenders to return
payments received from guarantors.
Under the federal bankruptcy law and comparable provisions of state fraudulent transfer laws, a guarantee, such as the guarantee provided by the
Company, could be voided, and payment thereon could be required to be returned to the guarantor or to a fund for the benefit of the creditors of the
guarantor, if, among other things, the guarantor, at the time it incurred the indebtedness evidenced by its guarantee (i) received less than reasonably
equivalent value or fair consideration for the incurrence of the guarantee and (ii) one of the following was true:


·
the guarantor was insolvent or rendered insolvent by reason of the incurrence of the guarantee;


·
the guarantor was engaged in a business or transaction for which the guarantor's remaining assets constituted unreasonably small capital; or


·
the guarantor intended to incur, or believed that it would incur, debts beyond its ability to pay those debts as they mature.
The measures of insolvency for purposes of these fraudulent transfer laws will vary depending upon the law applied in any proceeding to determine
whether a fraudulent transfer has occurred. Generally, however, a guarantor would be considered insolvent if:


·
the sum of its debts, including contingent liabilities, was greater than the fair saleable value of all of its assets;

·
the present fair saleable value of its assets was less than the amount that would be required to pay its probable liability on its existing debts,

including contingent liabilities, as they became absolute and mature; or


·
it could not pay its debts as they become due.
The court might also void such guarantee, without regard to the above factors, if it found that a guarantor entered into its guarantee with actual intent
to hinder, delay, or defraud its creditors.

A court would likely find that a guarantor did not receive reasonably equivalent value or fair consideration for its guarantee unless it benefited
directly or indirectly from the issuance or incurrence of such indebtedness. If a court voided such guarantee, holders of the indebtedness and lenders would
no longer have a claim against such guarantor or the benefit of the assets of such guarantor constituting collateral that purportedly secured such guarantee.
In addition, the court might direct holders of the indebtedness and lenders to repay any amounts already received from a guarantor.
In addition, any claims in respect of a guarantee could be subordinated to all other debts of that guarantor under principles of "equitable
subordination," which generally require that the claimant must have engaged in some type of inequitable conduct; the misconduct must have resulted in
injury to the creditors of the debtor or conferred an unfair advantage on the claimant; and equitable subordination must not be inconsistent with other
provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.
The indenture governing the notes will contain restrictive covenants that restrict our ability to expand or fully pursue our business strategies.
The indenture governing the notes will contain financial and operating covenants that, among other things, will restrict our ability to take specific
actions, even if we believe them to be in our best interest, including restrictions on our ability to:


·
consummate a merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets; and


·
incur secured and unsecured indebtedness.
In addition, our revolving credit facility and certain other debt agreements require us to meet specified financial ratios and the indenture governing
the notes will require us to maintain at all times a specified ratio of unencumbered assets to unsecured debt. These covenants may restrict our ability to
expand or fully pursue our business strategies. Our ability to comply with these and other provisions of the indenture governing the notes, our revolving
credit facility and certain other debt agreements may be affected by changes in our operating and financial performance, changes in general business and
economic conditions, adverse regulatory developments or other events beyond our control. The breach of any of these covenants could result in a default
under our indebtedness, which could result in the acceleration of the maturity of such indebtedness. If any of our indebtedness is accelerated prior to
maturity, we may not be able to repay such indebtedness or refinance such indebtedness on favorable terms, or at all.
There is no prior public market for the notes, so if an active trading market does not develop or is not maintained for the notes you may not be
able to resell them on favorable terms when desired, or at all.
Prior to this offering, there was no public market for the notes and we cannot assure you that an active trading market will ever develop for the notes
or, if one develops, will be maintained. Furthermore, we do not intend to apply for listing of the notes on any securities exchange or for quotation of the
notes on any automated dealer quotation system. The underwriters have informed us that they currently intend to make a market in the notes after this
offering is completed. However, the underwriters may cease their market making at any time without notice to or the consent of existing noteholders. The
lack of a trading market could adversely affect your ability to sell the notes when desired, or at all, and the price at which you may be able to sell the notes.
The liquidity of the trading market, if any, and future trading prices of the notes will depend on many factors, including, among other things, prevailing
interest rates, our financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and prospects, the market for similar securities and the overall securities market, and
may be adversely affected by unfavorable changes in these factors. It is possible that the market for the notes will be subject to disruptions which may have
a negative effect on the holders of the notes, regardless of our financial condition, liquidity, results of operations or prospects.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
We have made statements in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference that are
"forward-looking" in that they do not discuss historical facts, but instead note future expectations, projections, intentions or other items relating to the
future. These forward-looking statements include those made in the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus. In particular, statements
pertaining to our capital resources, portfolio performance and results of operations contain forward-looking statements. Likewise, all of our statements
regarding anticipated growth in our funds from operations and anticipated market conditions, demographics and results of operations are forward-looking
statements. Forward-looking statements involve numerous risks and uncertainties and you should not rely on them as predictions of future events. Forward-
looking statements depend on assumptions, data or methods that may be incorrect or imprecise and we may not be able to realize them. We do not
guarantee that the transactions and events described will happen as described (or that they will happen at all). You can identify forward-looking statements
by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "believes," "expects," "may," "will," "should," "seeks," "approximately," "intends," "plans," "pro
forma," "estimates" or "anticipates" or the negative of these words and phrases or similar words or phrases. You can also identify forward-looking
statements by discussions of strategy, plans or intentions. The following factors, among others, could cause actual results and future events to differ
materially from those set forth or contemplated in the forward-looking statements:
