Kids from my school (Houston area) chose A&M over UT (even for business), and I think they're crazy. But that's just my opinion.

klparker312, that tee is hilarious!
But it's a bit girly. Otherwise, I would wear it.
:P

My daughter was told that was one of the three Must have Tshirts for A&M.
The other two was a Class of '13 shirt and a saw 'em off shirt.
She is set!
My new personal fav:
Aggieland Outfitters

Nope. Engineering right here, decided on A&M because it was a better fit. UT has a great program as well, but, I really just wanted to go to A&M.

I chose A&M Engr. over UT Engr. two years ago. Both my parents are UT alum and I grew up and graduated HS in Austin.

At least you had a choice. I can't believe that I haven't heard from A&M yet. It looks like I will be a longhorn in the fall...

I chose a&m over UT to and my mom went to UT. I chose a&m because i just love the atmosphere much more.
I also have a friend from austin who went to a&m over UT and she said she was the only one in her school who did that and it was wierd at first but now she loves it.

Amazing, couldn't have asked for a better experience and it just keeps getting better. I'm succeeding academically, I've been granted a scholarship from the department I'm majoring in for next year, I love what I'm learning, I've had multiple internship offers, I work for the school in the department I'm majoring in, I've met some good friends, and I've met the girl I fell in love with and more importantly whom loves me in return. If I could go back to my senior year in HS I'd easily take A&M over UT again.
