Going all the way back to freshman year, at the beginning first semester I LOVED TCU, everything was perfect, my dorm, my friends, roommate, classes, girls, all of it was awesome. But as the years have gone to where i am today, i can say with confidence that i do NOT feel that way at all anymore. As freshman year progresses, the awesome new friends you had made at the beginning of the year have now vanished into the cliques of fraternities and sororities at this school. It's unreal how fake this schools social life is, the greek scene completely runs the social life of the school, and if you dont plan on rushing youll have a really tough time trying to make it work out well. Personally i was able to make some of it work and tried to stay social as much as possible with all that i could.

Education wise TCU is a wonderful school which challenges you, especially within the neeley school of business.

However, at the end of the day i always was left feeling disconnected from that place. The social scene is full of fake and snotty students who are the farthest thing from people that are 'Down to Earth'. School spirit is basically non existent, and on football saturdays students are way to caught up in dressing preppy and getting drunk then actually supporting the team, It's embarrassing!

As the old saying goes you can't judge a book by its cover…well let me tell ya, "At TCU THEY JUDGE THE BOOK BY THE COVER"
