What Students Say?
Likes
- Texas A&M University being a reputed university in Texas has a large community through the United States. The curriculum, flexibility in courses and the professors are exceptional.
- Adding to this is the cost efficiency where you get to finish off your masters without burdening yourself with huge loans.
Dislikes
- One main thing I dislike is the location. The university is situated in a town or a suburb area here. Not much access to the metro facilities. But on the bright side, big cities like Houston and Austin are just 90 mins away
Overall experience has been good so far. With the right coursework, professors, extracurricular activities to do and the people around, university life has been great so far.
