Texas Tech University Top Questions

The kind of person that should not attend Texas Tech University is they type of person that does not want to be in large classes with lots of students. For some people it is just fine but if you prefer a more face to face environment, TTU is not the place.

Everyone has the right to a higher education. There are some students at every school who work hard for their education and others who don?t. I believe universities should eliminate students who do not care about their education, in order to open a spot in that classroom for someone who does want to have a better education. Someone who puts forth no effort in the classroom should not be welcome into a university. This does not mean a student with less intellectual knowledge then another peer. It just means a student who is unwilling to try for an education.

A person who doesn't have any school spirit woud probably not like to attend Texas Tech Univeristy because we are in the Big 12 Conference and very supportive of our athletics and pretty much everyone goes to all the games.

I believe this goes for any college you plan on attending, but if you believe that college is just like high school and that you don't have to study for exams or you don't put little to no effort in your school work, you will not survive. Don't go to Texas Tech University just to say, "Hey, I'm in college" either. The professors and students here take their work seriously and most likely you will be surrounded by students who are ready to learn and are striving to become successful in life.

Texas Tech Is very a good place for very liberal students. The school suppots unique ideas and encorages them to be expessed. Lubbock, being a small town is relaxing. Things move a little bit slower here but you still can have tons of fun. The town is very supportive of the school and is always kind.

The kind of person that shouldn't attend Texas Tech University would be one that isn't open to try new activities. The students at Tech are all devoted to the school and it's traditions. If your able to enjoy the festivities, show your raider pride, and fight for Texas Tech you'll easily fit in with the students.

Texas Tech University is a rather large school. In the year 2008 alone over twenty-eight thousand students attended the school so anyone who would do better in a smaller college should not attend this school. Students who attend Tech will incounter class lectures of over 900 students, a large campus, and resident halls of up to 12 floors. Some people would benifet from this type of enviornment and feel comfortable in such a large community but others would do better in a smaller school and these individuals should not attend Texas Tech University.

Some one who is not very goal oriented would not do very well at Texas Tech. The program here pushes you to do your best in all aspects of life. Also, if someone is not very fond of being close and interacting with thousands of students, this is not the place for you. I prefer the number of students due to the fact that I am allowed to expand my relationships and learn from others.

People who believe that college is just like highschool and they think they can skim through college without doing a whole lot of work and reading.

Mature

A person who is not committed to reaching their full potential, academically and mentally.

I think the kind of person that shouldnt attend this school is someone that isnt willing to learn not just academically, but individually as well. Texas Tech is very committed to sucess in ones future career endeavors, and by coming here, you dont just learn textbook information. You are able to get hands on experience which enables you to grow independently.

Texas Tech University is a school that is open for anyone, I see many people around campus with different ethicities, styles or disabilities. The school is extremely helpful towards anyone who needs it, such as the students who are blind or are in a wheelchair.

People who want a school that is extremely focused on liberal arts probably should not come to Texas Tech.

Someone who isn't open minded and not outgoing.

Someone who wants to get away from a big city but not fall off the map

Someone who is not motivated or not wanting to feel apart of a school. Tech is large but there is a place for everyone

For some people, who prefer a closer connection between student and professor, this school might not be the best for them. The classrooms can sometimes be intimidating especially when there is a ratio of 400 students to one professor for one class. Some people work better in a more familiar setting with fewer people but Tech is set up like a buisness and it is easy to get lost in the crowd of fellow competitors.

All should attend.

One who is well grounded and knows what they want to do with their life, even if they have not chosen a career.
