<p>Yea, Texas State (Southwest Texas State U when I was in college at SFA) has really grown. Approaching the size of UT or A&M already…!</p>
<p>Daughter liked the area and campus at Texas State, and surprisingly at U.T. as well. Looks like the U.T. program may be the stronger one, but we’ll have to visit the anthropology schools at each to know for sure. Then look into financial asst. too.</p>
<p>C.F., that’s a great idea. Thanks for the helpful suggestion. I don’t think she’ll have any problem doing just that. </p>
<p>It was so exciting (and a relief!) to see her get genuinely excited when we found the journal for linguistic anthropology. She wants to subscribe to it even. Not sure I was ready for a subscription to a scientific journal when I was 16, so that tells me something right there.</p>
<p>Not sure what a guaranteed-admit to U.T. means, but she’s certainly in the top 5, if not the top 2 at her high school, out of about 140 students in her class, has a 4.0 gpa and scored 2150 or so on the SAT last month. I would imagine those are good enough stat’s to get in?</p>
