Things to Consider
Texas Christian University
- 1 Very expensive at $71,500 total annual cost - merit scholarships essential; among most costly Texas universities
- 2 Heavy Greek life influence (50% participation) dominates social scene and may create exclusivity pressure for independents
- 3 Limited socioeconomic diversity (15% Pell Grant) creates predominantly wealthy student body that may impact social dynamics
- 4 Moderate-to-conservative political climate may not suit all perspectives, though increasingly diverse viewpoints present
- 5 Car dependency despite urban location - transportation challenging without vehicle for off-campus activities
- 6 Showgirls team is competitive; walk-on acceptance not guaranteed despite open auditions
