One of the main reasons I decided to go to A&M was because of its amazing atmosphere and traditions. A&M is definitely in a college town where the community supports the school any chance they get. I have visited other schools where the school just happens to be placed in the town or city. You don't have the support from the outside community and the feeling of at home just isn't the same. Also, the traditions at A&M are known nationwide. The traditions and how much Aggies stick to their traditions is something that Aggies and former Aggies are very proud of.

Its a great place to learn and meet new people, the classes are not all easy but are manageable if you put the time and effort into them. And the spirit of Aggieland can never be told, it must be felt firsthand. College Station is a great college town for all sorts of people.

Maybe everyone says this, but I can't imagine a student body with more pride in its history, traditions, and fellow students. Many people call us a cult, to be honest I'd kind of agree. But the friendly, engaging, wonderful cult that everyone wants to be a part of. The one that embraces you as family, supports you, and has your back throughout life. Aggie pride is reflected in our interactions on campus, out interactions with employees, our behavior at sporting events, and our kindness to anyone called a "Aggie". This is the absolutely best part of the school. A&M is large, very large from what I'm told. I can't imagine going to a smaller school because to be honest I would never believe that there are 50,000 people here. I see people I know everywhere I go. As an undergrad I'd see fellow dormies all the time. We'd meet up for lunch, for movies, to play games. I'd see friends in classes, then at the convenience store on campus. There is a huge push to get freshmen involved in organizations and you could easily do nothing but student organizations every night of the week (a terrible idea if you intend to get good grades) I personally spend most of my time in my dorm. Not holed up, but that's where my social hub is. I know everyone on my floor and they constantly stop by. We do homework together, hang out, play games, etc. People keep their doors open and are encouraged to makes conversation with the people around them. This is largely specific to the northside dorms, which I find sad because it's such a huge part of my life.

It is a fairly well ranked and respected university.

The best thing about A&M is once you find your niche (and even when you are finding it) in academia you have tons of resources available. The staff and professors that I encountered were extremely helpful. I especially recommend the financial services office.
