School Overview
Texas A&M University (A&M standing for "Agriculture and Mechanical"), College Station, is the flagship institution among 11 more universities in the Texas A&M University System (see list below). The Texas A&M University System educates more than 131,000 students each year.
Texas A&M University, College Station was opened in 1876 as Texas' first public institution of higher learning. It is a research-intensive university with more than 50,000 students – including 10,000 graduate students – studying in more than 120 undergraduate and 240 graduate degree programs in ten colleges. Students of the university can join countless activities ranging from athletics and recreation to professional and community service events; all organized within 950 student groups.
Being a part of amazing school organizations is only part of the Aggie experience. What is an Aggie? An Aggie is a student at Texas A&M University. In the early 1900s A&M students were referred to as Farmers. The term Aggie began to be used in the 1920s. In 1949 the yearbook changed its name to Aggieland, that’s when Aggie became the official student body nickname.*
Texas A&M also offers its students access to world-class research programs and award-winning faculty. There are opportunities to learn in and out of the classroom, whether through technology, or through one of their branch campuses, or at international study centers. All of this helps fulfill Texas A&M's mission of "developing leaders of character dedicated to serving the greater good."
The U.S. News and World Report's 2014 edition ranks Texas A&M as 25th overall among public universities and 2nd in the nation in the "great schools, great prices" category. The Wall Street Journal named Texas A&M 2nd among all national universities in a survey of top U.S. corporations, nonprofits and government agencies, based on graduates who recruiters prefer to hire. Texas A&M also ranks 2nd nationally among public and private universities in 2014 Washington Monthly based on research, service, social mobility and contributions to society.
Athletics
Arch-rivals with the University of Texas, the Aggies play as a member of the Southeastern Conference in all sports as of July 2012. The school was previously a charter member of the Southwest Conference until it dissolved in 1996. Texas A&M athletics has had almost 650 student-athletes compete in the SEC at the NCAA Division 1-A level in 20 varsity sports.
The school's 20 sports teams wear the colors maroon and white, and as of April 2011 have earned 138 Southwest and Big 12 conference regular season and tournament titles, as well as 11 team national championships.
In 2002, Sports Illustrated ranked the university 46th in an analysis of America's Best Sports Colleges, naming College Station as the 9th best college sports town.
Financial Aid and Scholarships
Texas A&M offers a variety of resources to help students defray the cost of attendance: scholarships, grants, loans, waivers, work-study, and on-campus student employment. Approximately 71 percent of the student body at Texas A&M receives some form of financial aid, sharing in over $536 million in financial assistance annually.
Library System
Texas A&M's campus libraries include Evans Library & Annex, Cushing, West Campus, Medical Sciences, Policy Sciences & Economics, Map & GIS, Digital, Qatar Campus, and Galveston Campus. More than 4 million e-books are available throughout the library system.
Student Housing
In the 2006 fall semester, more than 20 percent of the student body lived on-campus in one of a pair of housing sections on opposite ends of campus: the Northside and Southside areas, which have both single-sex and co-educational residence halls. There are 17 student residence halls on the Northside; these include three university honors dorms. The first new residence hall built since 1989, Hullabaloo Hall, opened in fall 2013; it is a state-of-the-art, 648-bed residence hall with many amenities such as music practice rooms, game room, and open-access computer lab. On Southside, several residence halls are reserved for members of the Corps of Cadets; there are also two Living Learning Communities on this side of campus.
