My son has been so busy with their free freshman events that he cannot even talk to us about important stuff... yes more important than Casino Night! LOL I had experience in the UT system on a personal basis (UTD), but alumni of one of their schools or not, this tops everything we had. UTD was a JR/SR University in my day, and so we were expected to have all this fun-thirst out of our systems. We still did not have half the fun or events he's having.

Visited SFA for a campus tour, my dad mentioned that I would like the beautiful campus. I truly…read morewasn't amazed after visiting other Texas universities. It was more of a ordinary school that lacks history, traditions and school spirit. My tour guide, Cherish was the bomb.com though. She was funny, cool, and laid-back. Despite, all the old buildings and only the presidents building looking new--she made the tour exciting. I can't say much about the kinesiology department as we didn't cover that part. They do have forestry, but not horticulture which I'm looking to minor in with my major of kinesiology. The library looked pretty out-dated and basic which didn't appeal to me since I know I'll be spending a lot of time there. The dorms aren't the nicest either. It's horrible how they don't have a roommate survey in order to choose your roomie, you have to go based off of first day orientation which caters mostly to freshmen students and not transfer students. Like I said before, they lack traditions. The only two things that stand for SFA is the lumberjack stick that you have to buy and design on your own, the Stephen F. Austin water fountain changes to the school's color during finals week and the hand sign motioned to look like a gun or so. Wow! Big deal.. However, one cool thing is that SFA isn't affiliated with any other universities in Texas, it is its own school. Not a sister to no other school. That's neat. Though, it is located in the country and its better that way because you won't have to deal with loud unnecessary noises when you trying to study. The rec center/gym area is extremely small, but on the outdoors there is a lazy river that connects around. The campus isn't too big to get lost, but at the same time it's small enough to get packed quick. Scholarship opportunities seem to cater to the freshmen, so I can't say this school is transfer friendly. Additionally, everyone (staff) were extremely nice and showed their southern hospitality!

Baylor University is a very nice campus to visit. The Mayborn Museum and Texas Sports Hall of Fame…read moreare located here. One of the few campuses where located next to a river while McLane Stadium makes this campus stand out while driving on I-35. After our visit of the Mayborn Museum we ventured off to find the bear pen. After following directions we found it and parked in front. Here we saw Joy & Lady relaxing in the Bill & Eva Williams Bear Habitat. One was sleeping but the other walked around and drank water. They originated from Oregon and are medium sized brown bears. There are signs to not bring pets here. From here you can walk to campus centerpiece Rosenbalm Fountain and circle around to enjoy his beautiful campus. Back at bear habitat you can walk along Waco Creek below. Before leaving made sure to see and take photos of Pat Neff Hall with its magnificent colonial architecture.

So first things first?…read more What exactly is The UNT New College at Frisco? Think of it as a school where all the big businesses in the area got together, told UNT what kind of things they'd love to see in graduating college kids, and then UNT made programs tailoring to that. Bam. You've got the Frisco campus. No, it's not just a business school, although a heavy focus of the curriculum is put on accounting, finance, things like writing press releases, fund raising, public relations, etc. All sorts of things are taught there that corporations have a huge desire to see more focus on. Another key thing about the Frisco location is that it is predominantly all night classes, so it's tailor made for those already in the work force, maybe those wanting to get a different degree or even further an existing degree. You can still come here and do some basics (I took chemistry and a psychology course here) but they are typically afternoon to evening courses. Lots of the commuter students at the main Denton campus like the Frisco campus because parking is free and PARKING IS FREE. Yeah. It's worth putting twice. Plus they are super freaking friendly here. They always great you with a smile when you walk in, they give you free swag all over the place and I swear...It's like they remember you paid them to go there or something. Amazing. They cater food in all the time for all students and you can rent a laptop, use a printer, get scantrons, all free. Instructors are fantastic. I hope they offer more daytime options for core classes. It's a great facility.

As a parent, I would NOT recommend East Texas A&M…read more Freshmen are essentially forced to live in the dorms, and the environment my child experienced there was extremely concerning. We received multiple official safety alerts from the university, including an armed robbery in a dorm, a terroristic threat with an arrest in a residence hall, a stalking incident that led to a police pursuit, and a hazing investigation. Imagine knowing your child is required to live in that environment. My child described it as feeling like they were living in a prison, constantly on edge instead of feeling safe. No parent should have to worry like that. To make it worse, we paid around $22,000 for just two semesters, and it absolutely did not feel worth it. I am honestly just grateful this experience is almost over. If you are a parent, please do your research and think very carefully before sending your child here. I would not make the same decision again.

Hopefully this gouge saves others from potential headaches. The flight school program at TSTC Waco…read moreis complete garbage, stay as far away as possible. Everything they do, both ground/flight is a massive exercise in over-promising and catastrophically under-delivering. I'm nearing the end of the program there and it's been a nightmare from top to bottom and start to finish - I'd never have stuck with it if it weren't for my family situation requiring me to stay in Waco. Their flight courses almost always take everyone exponentially longer than planned (which means more money), the scheduling is often disastrous, the planes are junk, the CFIs are mostly clueless and incompetent little tyrants who hate teaching and aren't any good at it, the CFI/student ratio is poor, the program admin/policies/practices are largely laughable, the department head is an abject idiot with zero legit qualifications/capabilities for the job, the attrition rate is massive... I could go on. Also if you're a veteran like me, getting your GI Bill to coordinate and fund everything properly also doesn't work well, plus the fact that the program takes 99% of students way longer than promised means that you'll burn far more of your allotment than it should take (and you'll get much less value from it). The entire student experience is just miserable, and the staff couldn't care less about this fact. I got an additional rating outside of TSTC, going with a Part 61 who actually gives a damn about good teaching (Waco Flight Training with Aaron Dabney - highly recommend him), and the difference is absolutely night vs day. That comparison really opened my eyes to just how terrible TSTC is. Literally the only two positives I can think of are: 1. if you manage to weather the avalanche of nonstop BS, you get 250 hours knocked off of ATP requirements, and 2. the school's physical building is reasonably nice. That's genuinely the entire "pro" list. The "con" list includes absolutely everything else. This doesn't only represent my personal experience either, I'm not an outlier - I've spoken with plenty of other current/former TSTC students and CFIs from recent years, and the reports are extremely consistent. My bad experience there is very much the norm, not an exception. Unless they suddenly get vastly better new management and completely overhaul/rebuild the program, which doesn't appear likely anytime soon, avoid this Part 141 program like the plague.
