I commute to Texas State from Austin, but the drive is definitely worth the price difference in tuition compared to UT.

Texas State has it all: a beautiful campus in a small college town, a river running through campus, a huge library with lot's or resources, located in the beautiful Texas hill country 30 minutes south of Austin and 45 minutes north of San Antonio, lot's of things to do in town and when you're looking for more, just make a quick trip to Austin or San Antonio, awesome people who are always nice and friendly, great sports programs and a football program on the rise, tailgating before football games, game day excitement, lots of parties, awesome greek system if you're in to that, smaller classes (not the monster classes at UT, where your just a number, challenging undergrad and graduate classes and programs....I guess I could go on and on. Bottom line: If your interested in attending a top notch state university that has challenging academic programs, has an awesome small town college atmosphere with lots to do, and treats you like a person instead of a number, then Texas State is the place for you. Go Bobcats!

Quite Bright
Texas State is a great school to go to. The location is great, with plenty of stuff to do. Some people have a hard time staying "on task" with so much to do here, but once you find that balance it's awesome!

Not so bright
I am a graduating senior this December. TSU is notorious for their large tuition increases and irresponsible use of that money for non-academic reasons. In the last year there have been three, look them up they are in the papers, break-ins very near campus that all ended in multiple deaths and wounded homeowners. I have been constantly receiving student news emails regarding a recent sexual assault in the library or an attempted rape in one of the parking garages. The teachers are for the most part, below average with most just hoping for a paycheck and not really seeming to take serious their positions as respectable professors. To sum it up, it's as if you are attending a Public High School all over again. In my opinion though, the very worst part is that coming to college I believed in a challenge, in academic competition and creativity... what I received from this university is a lack of difficulty in any courses, an excused laziness on behalf of the faculty and students, and my own personal disillusionment with the State of Texas Public Education system from K-College. What I have learned in this time is how to continue to educate oneself outside of the institution and for every ball Texas State has dropped in the realm of my education, I have done over three times with my own individual efforts. They have reminded why it is so important to earn your education and not have it given to you.
