Texas State University-San Marcos

(San Marcos, TX)

Texas State-San Marcos, the main campus of the Texas State University system, is dedicated to celebrating the diversity of 50,000 students.

Being a large public university has its benefits. It means more options for students at every level-socially, academically, and professionally. It means it has an NCAA Division I football team. It means it's affordable. And it means that its mission is to educate widely, to contribute to the success of the next generation, both in Texas and beyond.

The proof is in the numbers: Over 30% of its students are ethnic minorities and the university ranks in the top twenty nationally in the number of degrees awarded to Hispanics.
