School Mission

(Data appear as originally submitted by this school)
Texas State today is one of the most selective and diverse public universities in Texas. We offer a challenging academic environment with accessible faculty who involve students in thinking through issues, and encouraging them to become lifelong learners. Set among huge cypress and pecan trees lining a spring fed river, Texas State provides for an abundance of outdoor activities. More than 250 student organizations utilize our state-of-the-art library, recreation center, and student center. Texas State has a distinguished history now more than 100 years old and remains the only university in Texas to have graduated a United States President - Lyndon B. Johnson.
