Texas State University Top Questions

Well, I know for a fact most people procrastinate but there really is not a place for unwanted people. There are groups and organizations that help you feel at home. For this question I have no comment or answer.

People who don't have the drive to do their best should stay away from Texas State. You make it a couple years, but you will not graduate if you don;t put in the work required.

Extremely conservative, pompous, type-A personality person.

If you are at college for all of the wrong reasons you shouldn't waste your time and go to this college or any other college. College is a place where you are supposed to stretch your mind and expand on what you already know, not a place to slack off be lazy and go out and party. If that's all your at college for you will quickly be weeded out and drop out. This college especially pushes you to the limit to make yourself the person you've always wanted to be.

A person thaat is mainly focused on partying, sociallylizing, drinking, and doing drugs with no educational motives should not attend this school. Texas State takes education very seriously and will not tolerate slacking.

Texas State is diverse and is home to many different types of people so it would be hard to specify who shouldn't attend the school. Althoughl I can use my roomate as an example since she decided to go back home after her first semester. She was more focused on having fun than on pursuing the acedemic aspect of the college experience, and while it is healthy to put yourself out there and have a good time, it is still importnant to find a balance. My roomate let her grades slip and began to wish she was back home.

Close-minded people should not go to Texas State because it is a diverse campus. As a Hispanic serving institute Texas State tries to bring diversity to its campus. I am a fist generation college student and I had a lot of getting use to. It was a difficult but Texas State does a great job to allow students like me to adjust to the college transition by having programs in place that help first generation college students. Anyone who does not like equality would not be able to fit in well at Texas State.

I think that a student that is unmotivated will not do well at Texas State University. Not only is the campus spread out, it is in hilly Central Texas so attending class is a physical effort. Also, I think a person should not attend the university if they are close minded. Texas State University is a very diverse college, encouraging attendance of students of all religious and cultural backgrounds.

I honestly can't think of a "type" of person who shouldn't attend Texas State. It is a very diverse college with people from all walks of life. There is also a wide variety of clubs, organizations, and fraternities to become a part of to make friends with similar interests as you. Many students here are very friendly and accepting, those are actually two of the main things students are talked to about at orientation. They encourage everyone to be open to other people's opinions and to accept those different from you.

The type of person that shouldn't come to this school would be someone that is coming to only party. Our school may be known as a party school but a lot of students here do take their school into consideration and there's a lot of things to do besides partying. So unless you're coming to study Texas State wouldn't be the school for you.

Honestly, I think everyone is welcome and can attend this school. It has the right amount of everything on campus. From clubs that deal with your majors to greek life and to religious activities. There is something for everyone here and these activities make any person feel comfortable and relaxed.

Someone who doesn't want to work hard.

Anyone willing to learn and apply themselves.

Someone who doesn't have the time or will to study and put in the effort to learn. A person who is only interested in socializing and not in learning.

Anyone seeking strict traditional education.

If you don't like being around a lot of stuck-up White people, don't come here. If you don't want to see a lot of beer-drinking drunk people...don't come here.

Someone who is physically disabled would have a hard time getting around this campus, it is very hilly and has a lot of stairs, which would make it hard for a physically disabled person to get around.

Texas State is not a favorable school for one who admires monotony. We like to thrive on the enjoyment of the college experience through student activities such as Drag Racing, Riverfests, and various sport meets while still preserving the endeavor toward higher learning as our primary objective.

NO ONE! This college is extremely diverse and accepting of all people.

The person who has trouble saying no. It is extremely easy to get caught up in a whirlwind of night life and hedonistic activities.

This university is probably not the best place for a person who is quiet and reserved. Texas State is a big campus which enables us to interact with our peers and professors.

An individual not motivated to get out of the every day habits of laziness. Someone who performs in a perfunctory fashion should not attend. A person who moves like a caterpillar slinking along the sidewalk of life need not apply. A person waiting for the spaceship to return from the Hitchcock classic "The Day The Earth Stood Still" should stay on the bus that is headed south. Any individual living in a tye-dye world of Mama Cass should stay at home and take lessons from Lady GaGa to attend this school. The sluggard should tour the Alamo.

The is no kind of person who shouldn't attened the great campus of Texas State. We are already the most diverse campus i've seen, so why not have a little bit of everybody?

People who are of the opinion that Texas State is still a huge party school should choose another instution. Texas State has worked very hard to put a large emphasis on academics and extra curriculars, partying comes second to those things. These students who are not serious about their studies devalue the Texas State degree.

Texas State University is a teaching university which means that most students find a happy home here. Only students that do not apply themselves and expect college to be a mere extention of high school will do poorly. The faculty here like to see their students do well and reach their individual goals. Only the lazy and apathetic need not apply.

People who fall under peer pressure really easy. There are a lot of sorority and fraternities that party alot and just invite anybody. You have to stay mentally focused and learn that school comes first, and there are more important things that going to some party.

A rich person. Unless you have loads of money, you will not succeed here.

If you are a student that is not interested in achieving a degree, you are not right for Texas State University. In order to successfully adapt to Texas State, you cannot be a student that is only interested in getting involved with parties and unlimited freedom. If you are not serious about your involvement with Texas State, you will not enjoy what all it has to offer as your university. Texas State is a reputable school in Texas that helps most students reach their goals by providing the best programs and teachers. If you lack drive and character, apply elsewhere.

People that prefer a huge campus and don't like to get involved in campus activities.

Texas State is very diverse and offers something for everyone, so it is a great school for all types of people. However, it is a school for those students who want to educate themselves and are there to learn. If a person is just going there to have something to do, instead of going there to earn an education, I would say this school is not for them. Texas State takes education very seriously and they expect the students to do the same.

A person who doesn't care about their education and does not want to study

Someone who is not accepting of diversity, from age to race to language.

Anyone who is looking for a quality education in a friendly, warm enviornment.

Get as much research on the college your going to attend or planning to attend, if will help out when making your final decision.

Really what I love the most is every person I've seen is always avaliable to find someone like them in every sense. People that may have stood out in high school for whatever reason can find a that people here at Texas State are very welcoming and open minded.

People who aren't ready to accept others for who they are and are very inward focused in relation to politics, religion, and social experiences.

I honestly believe that everyone is welcome at the school regardless of race, religion, handicap, or gender.

In all honesty someone who is completely focused on work and academics. This school is very social and doesn't have a lot of Friday classes. So once Thursday arrives everyone forgets they're in school and just go out and party or hang out with friends. I have had trouble focusing on my school work many times so someone who is all about academics should not come here.
