    #1 Best Colleges for Business in Texas

    Junior: UT has a great location and plenty of resources. I've recieved free career advice, cognitive therapy, and accomodations through the university. There is so much to do and so many student organizations on campus that it makes it hard to pick what to get involved in! It is very hot though, and housing is expensive, but it is nice to be able to walk from campus to my apartment and UT students get free transportation through the city buses. Academically, UT has well structured courses with expert professors. I feel well prepared for graduate school. Hook 'em!

    #2 Best Colleges for Business in Texas

    Freshman: At first, I was a bit disappointed that I ended up at Rice University. I was aiming for the Ivy Leagues and ended up at a college that I hadn't even heard of before the university application process. However, even though I've only been here for a few weeks, I couldn't be happier. Rice is a super inclusive university, with only the best of the best as professors, and the people here are nicer than any other people I've ever met. Everyone in the student body is willing to get to know you and, as an introvert, I feel myself becoming more and more relaxed when hanging out and talking to other people. Of course, I couldn't mention Rice without mentioning how good their academics are, and as a STEM student the classes are fast-paced yet easy to understand. Rice also has an enormous campus that rivals the Ivies while only having a total enrollment of under 7000 students. This means that dorms are also massive, and the living conditions are sensational. I'm happy to be an Owl!

    #3 Best Colleges for Business in Texas

    Senior: At the beginning of Fall 2021, I will be starting my senior year at Texas A&M. I can say that the culture is one of the best in the nation. Throughout my time here, the culture, professors, and fellow classmates have made me feel like part of a larger Aggie family! All of the professors I have had are knowledgable, helpful, and understanding to their students issues and concerns. Sports at Texas A&M are fun and engaging. Attending one game at Kyle Field will show you just how the Spirit of Aggieland is among students and alumni alike. Along with all of this, the campus is beautiful and expanding at a very fast rate. Overall, if you are able to, I recommend attending Texas A&M University and joining the Fightin' Texas Aggies!

    #4 Best Colleges for Business in Texas

    Alum: When I arrived freshman year, I did not know ANYONE- I was the only person from my hometown and 1:15 from my entire state! I had a brief transition month where I was trying to find my way but overall, I felt everyone was warm and welcoming, eager to make new friends. Because SMU is so small, you start to see that people clique up into small groups based on their sorority/fraternity/club/major/activities. But by senior year, those walls got broken down. Even though cliques and small groups exist, it is not a closed membership experience- everyone is welcoming and seeing people on campus or at a bar is exciting and engaging. Of course, you have the people who think they are superior and will be stand-offish and rude... but that is every college. AND those people are the social-climbers who are insecure. SparkNotes version of this post: I had a huge group of true and amazing friends, excellent relationships with my professors, and a driven, work hard/play hard environment. GO HERE!

    #6 Best Colleges for Business in Texas

    Junior: My favorite thing about LeTourneau is the community. Everyone has this welcoming spirit and you know it can only be one thing, the holy spirit shining within them!
    One thing I would change about LeTourneau is the food. The Corner Cafe’s caterer, BonAppetite does not have the best food. Sometimes things are burnt or undercooked and as college students, it would be nice to br able to choose something good to eat that will satisfy my hinger needs after a long day of classes since we are paying for it after all.

  7. Baylor University

    • 4 Year
    • WACO, TX
    • 4,296 reviews
    #7 Best Colleges for Business in Texas

    Alum: Baylor had so much to offer- from the variety of student activities, clubs, groups, and majors, as well as the beautiful campus where you can hammock or walk around or study.
    As a theatre design major and BIC student, I got the best of both the cultural education and the critical thinking. I was able to study abroad, participate in a variety of activities and be intellectually challenged. I discovered my passions here and was given a great foundation to continue into my adult career. The Baylor network has also been a great help for my social life and career prospects!
    Waco is not the most exciting, but it is growing and close to Dallas and Austin for fun weekends.
    Some of the ‘Baylor bubble” culture is not the best like ‘ring by spring’ pressures and purity culture undertones, but many students are growing and learning and discovering healthier approaches to life, and Baylor is a good place for that to happen. Would choose Baylor again if I could do undergrad over!

    #8 Best Colleges for Business in Texas

    Junior: The University of Dallas offers students a phenomenal liberal arts education amidst a vibrant community of intellectually curious students, engaging faculty, and driven administrators.

    All students receive a thorough grounding in the foundational texts and thinkers of Western civilization through the Core Curriculum before pursuing major-specific courses. The UD Rome Program is one of the best study abroad programs in the nation, and offers all students the opportunity to study alongside one another in the Eternal City, as well as Greece and Europe.

    Indeed, the University of Dallas is a place like no other - while it may be small in size, it is truly one of the premier Catholic universities in America.

    #9 Best Colleges for Business in Texas

    Sophomore: TCU is a picture-perfect campus! Every day when I attend class I feel like I'm in a movie. The staff is helpful on all grounds and the student body is welcoming. From the time I toured the campus, I just knew it was where I belong and I can easily say that I still have that feeling today. The school is well taken care of and very clean especially with the COVID rules. In the midst of COVID-19, I feel safe being on-campus and going to the library.
    The one critique that I have about the school is that it is expensive which puts pressure on the students, which can at times take focus away from just simply doing well in class. This has affected me as I am only able to attend TCU due to the academic scholarship that I received which lowered the cost of loans that I had to take out. The pressure of needing to do well for financial purposes led to me not getting the results that I expect from myself.
    Overall I am grateful to be a Horned Frog!

    • 4,944 reviews
    #10 Best Colleges for Business in Texas

    Senior: Texas Tech University is a great school! Being that I am a senior and will be graduating this upcoming december, reflecting back my overall time at thus University has been great! I strongly feel that the education being taught is top notch and has helped me gain the skills needed to succeed out in the real world. The professors (for the most part, with a few acceptions) truly care and want their students to succeed, they care about the students well-being and are very willing to take extra time out of their day to assist if needed. Of course every university has its negatives, of course since this is a PWI, the diversity is there but not prevelant, but not to the point where it makes POC uncomfortable. As well as the distance and location of the school as well, being in West Texas (Lubbock TX), it is far from other big cities such as Houston, Austin, San Antonio, so there isn't that much to do out there. But the university does accomodate for that by always having campus activities.

    • RICHARDSON, TX

    #11 Best Colleges for Business in Texas

    Freshman: Good school for academics, especially for technology-based majors. Lots of academic clubs, and also several for card, board, and role-playing games. There's even an orchestra that only plays music from video games and anime! Additionally, this school has one of the best esports teams in the nation. It's a great environment for those who are happy to be a little bit geeky. What's great to me is that it doesn't matter what religion you practice, what race you are, your gender or orientation, your political views, or your major; generally speaking, people are pretty inviting and will readily form small groups to play games together, study, or just hang out. It's easy to find a home here even if you aren't normally the social type because there are so many interests represented.

  14. Southwestern University

    • 4 Year
    • GEORGETOWN, TX
    • 562 reviews
    #12 Best Colleges for Business in Texas

    Alum: As someone who considers herself to be friendly and affable, yet also easily overwhelmed by too many people, I think that Southwestern provided a way to be in close community with other people and interact with others in meaningful but also lighthearted and fun ways. I would also consider myself prone to deep critical thinking and asking questions and the liberal arts teaching philosophy really encouraged and nurtured that kind of learning/growing.

    It's close enough to Austin, Texas to have an endless wheel of entertainment possibilities at your disposal--should you choose to make the drive--but also not in the thick of the city itself. I also really appreciated their efforts to be environmentally and socially conscious, both in the city of Georgetown (which is powered entirely by wind energy) and on the campus itself.

    #13 Best Colleges for Business in Texas

    Freshman: I am happy with my choice of attending the University of Houston. I am a current freshman in the Honors College and don't have much insight on how the college "experience" is like because I haven't had a chance to be a traditional college student due to COVID-19. However, I can say that my time at UH so far has been great! I have enjoyed learning new things in my classes and meeting people who come from different backgrounds. One of the main reasons I chose to come to UH is because of the racial and socioeconomic diversity that exists among its student body. You will meet all kinds of people here and be able to learn things and see from different perspectives from speaking to them in classes and organizations. So far, my experience with making friends hasn't been great, probably because I haven't been taking classes on campus. But being part of the Honors College and joining orgs is definitely helpful in allowing me to branch out and meet new people with shared interests. Overall 4/5!

The professors truly care about students, and the small campus allows for more connection and individualized educational experience! Also, the residence life on campus does an extraordinary job at making all students feel welcomed and fosters diversity and individual learning experiences.

    Alum: I love UST! UST gave me the opportunity to grow all around as a person. Living on campus, you belong to a family and a community. The class sizes are perfect for persons who love small class sizes. The size of the classes allows for the professors to give each student personal time. The staff was like my parents away from home, they not only cared about my work in the classroom but they cared about me outside of the classroom. UST focuses on their students in and out of the class, they care for everyone and I love it there.

    Junior: I love Dallas Baptist University. For a private, non-party school, they have a ton of wholesome events that bring the student body together. Although I transferred into DBU, I can see the way the professors want you to succeed! I wish that the student body was more diverse in terms of ethnicity and socio-economic status, but I believe that over time that will come to pass! Overall, this is a great private university to get your undergrad/master's degree at.

    #17 Best Colleges for Business in Texas

    Sophomore: I started at this school during the pandemic and I feel that they handled everything extremely well ! UNT has been my dream school since I was a little kid and it has exceeded every expectation. There is a lot of diversity at UNT and they offer a lot of resources to help you succeed. Every department I have reached out to whether it be financial aid or housing, has always helped me tremendously without making me feel like I was not being heard. Although I started during the pandemic I feel that I had a great first year and am so very excited for this fall with everything opening back up. The professors I had were very accommodating to the unexpected winter storm that we had and unexpected family deaths. I did live on campus at Joe Greene and absolutely loved it! The only thing I really don't like about the campus is how there are some buildings that are pretty run down and the dinning halls are not all that great for the amount of money we pay for the dinning hall pass.

My cousin is the most recent family member who went there so I actually got to visit the campus and dorms. Everyone is extremely friendly and welcoming there! There's just this happy aura walking around the campus. I get excited when we go visit my cousin because it feels like home. I would recommend going to anyone who is thinking about going.

    #19 Best Colleges for Business in Texas

    Junior: It was a very welcoming experiencing, the teachers are helpful and there for the students needs. The overall experience and environment of being on campus is one that is second to none. The campus is relatively small but it helps to meet and create relationships with several students. In regards to activities there are several activities to partake in. There is Greek Life, Inter-murals, social clubs and student life events. Such events include concerts, trivia night, movies by the pool and several more. Due to the campus being a smaller size these events really bring the community together and create a network where people feel secure and safe being on campus. As a current student I would recommend attending St. Mary's as it is a place where you can accomplish your academic goals and forgo your planned expectations.

The staff and teachers are always there to help students in need and guide them down the career path they desire. They also offer dorms and have many events for students and teachers alike to participate in and enjoy. UHV offers many programs to help new and returning students make the most of their learning experience each semester, with tutoring, a writing center, professional teachers and professional learning environments. This is my first semester at University of Houston Victoria, but the professional work of the staff and teachers alike makes me feel comfortable returning to UHV in the upcoming fall semester. Overall, my experience with the University of Houston Victoria has been both educational and professional, with hardworking staff members ready to help students make the most out of their classes and earn their degree in their chosen career path.

    Alum: Great place to grow and learn. Classes are small which allows for one on one time with professors when needed. As an athlete, I realized quickly that professors were more than willing to work with student athletes when you communicate to them clearly on your schedule. New facilities and campus beautification have become a priority for the university over the past few years. The only students I saw that didn’t enjoy it, never got involved in anything. I wouldn’t trade my time at LCU for any other university in the world. There are quirky things about every university, including LCU, but you won’t find a university in the country with a faculty, staff, coaches, and students who will love you the way you will be loved at LCU.

With COVID 19, the administration did not miss a beat and they were there with online learning solution without delay and our education is going to move on so we do not have any delays with our graduation goal. I would recommend checking them out.

    There was always plenty to do around campus and tons of great facilities you can take advantage of!

    Junior: Speaking of the current COVID 19 situations, Transition to online learning went very smoothly. They kept up very well with any covid19 patients and were quick on delivering any new updates on the current situation, including the issues of voting for the new grading system.

    All of my professors reflected this situation into the course curriculum right away. They made adjustments to the weight of the exams, lab reports, and assignments, etc so that majority of students agree on what they learn and required to accomplish for the rest of the semester.

    Zoom premium service was provided so I did not have any problem with working on 3-4 different group projects, and presentations in the month of the semester.

    The optional P/F system was very reasonable and definitely helped students to be adjusted to the new learning system.
