"Well what would you define as a good fit? Because if I only have one main negative at one school, and its not a good fit, then a good fit would have to be one with no negatives right? That sounds like a perfect school."
Please stop putting words into my mouth.
You said you did not get a good vibe from A&M. A&M is a "love it or hate it" type of school. It is probably the most polarizing school I have ever experienced. If you did not
get a good vibe right off the bat with A&M, there is a very good possibility you won't like it there. You're also considering TCU, which is light years different from A&M. To me, both of those reasons are a good indication that A&M might not be right for you.
As far as TCU is concerned, I think you already found the biggest problem that you are going to have with the school: it's very Greek and you're non-Greek. That's a potential dealbreaker for you. It would be to me.
What I'm trying to tell you is that you are noticing all these red flags that indicate these schools may not be for you, but you seem to be ignoring them. If there are red flags, pay attention to them because they are very good indications that things may not work out for you as much as you hope. There are other schools in Texas for you to consider.
"So it can't be too much of a anomaly."
No matter how you spin it, it's an anomaly if you are deciding between a Greek, surburban, private university with 9,000 students and a very non-Greek, rural, public university with 48,000 students. If A&M and TCU had two degree plans that are not available to you elsewhere in the state, I could see why, but you haven't indicated such.
Just based on that, I really think you should consider some other schools in Texas as well.
