<p>To readers of this thread that may be interested in applying to Texas Colleges/Universities - Though iamacrazyscientist asked those responding to rate just a few universities in Texas, there are numerous colleges and universities in Texas that may suit your particular needs as well. In that vein, I wanted to recommend an upcoming publication (available early September) , “The Guide to Texas Colleges & Universities - 2005” (the Guide), that covers dozens of colleges and universities in Texas from the largest and best known (such as UT - Austin and Rice) down to private colleges with less than 1,000 students. Similar to other annual college books that draw on students’ perspectives (such as the Yale Daily News College Guide) in a chatty, narrative fashion, the Guide to Texas Colleges & Universities has a one or two page write-up on each college/university. The Guide is published by Texas Monthly magazine so you can “google” it up for more information if interested.</p>
