    What's not to like? Beautiful campus, many extra-curricular activities, a great city that is close to campus, events planned by the university and students, plus a spectacular setting all add up to a perfect university experience!

    The atmosphere is fun, the horned frogs are now in the Big 12 and there is a lot a school spirit. The campus is absolutely beautiful!

  • Sep-10-2011 I am a past student here

    Being an out-of-state student coming into Texas, I was worried about being an outsider. But really, the faculty is there to help. When I went to tour the school back in 2010, prospective students (and parents, alike) would come strike up a conversation with my mother and I. It was such a welcoming environment. Furthermore, everyone here wants to have fun, but learn as much as they can. It makes for a fun environment when you can go socialize with friends on the weekend and then study with the same friends during weekdays or finals. Having such eager classmates made finals week a breeze!
