If you are intelligent, in the top 10% of your high school class, or have decent SAT/ACT scores, DO NOT GO HERE! It may be cheap and close to home, and you may be guaranteed admission, but the atmosphere here sucks. You will do a disservice to yourself and all of your hard work if you settle for Texas State. I applied here because I thought I would at least be provided with an education similar to UT or A&M. My expectations weren't that high, but TSU STILL couldn't come even close to reaching them. Don't get me wrong, some of the departments are good. In fact they are probably better than UT because of a smaller student body. (sociology IS one of the better departments-the business department is getting to be as bad as UT). Most of my professors have been ok, and class sizes aren't that bad. But as far as being challenged by the courses or your fellow students...not gonna happen here. In addition, if you do choose TSU for some reason, be prepared to go greek. It seems to be a requirement. Remember that clique in high school made of the football team, cheerleaders, etc? the so-called "cool people" that are complete immature morons who do nothing but party? Go here, and they will all follow you to this crappy school and join every frat and sorority on campus, making them undesirable to those of us who value education and service organizations. The "greeks" will tell you every day in no uncertain terms that you suck if you aren't one of them. And diversity? forget that too. It's so bad I sometimes feel like a leper just because I'm not a bottle blond like nearly every other girl on this campus. I'm literally the only one that even has dark hair in at least three of my classes. It's ridiculous. If you must stay in TX, go ANYWHERE else. If you are already at the top of your game in high school (as I know you are if you have half a brain), go out of state because pickin's are REALLY slim in TX, especially at Texas State.
