My classmates at UT Austin are all very intelligent and successful people. It is good to be around people that you know are striving to have a purpose in they life and the society they live in.

My classmates are very studious and intelligent; a well-rounded group of diverse peers!

They definately study hard core and are overachievers, somewhat uptight as freshmen but they know when to relax and have fun when their brains are too overwhelmed.
Mercedes
My classmates are colorful, unique, caring, and non-judgemental.

When I got to the university, I felt like everyone I met was in the top 1{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of their class but doesn't that make it better? You feel like a total retard all the time- why does he study for only 4 hours while I pull all nighters. Why is he making straight As? Where does he find the time to party and still make good grades? They're all leaders of clubs, they all know what they want to do with their lives. It's really motivating. In study groups there's always one smart one. Thank God.

The student body is diverse, but crazily self-segregated. If you come to school looking to meet people of all different colors and from all walks of life, you might find it a bit challenging. The fraternities (IFC) and sororities are all white. Asian, Hispanic, and Black minorities co-exist, but do their own thing. The Business School has an Asian Business organization, a Hispanic one, and a Black one. Evangelical Christian groups are divided into Asian, Hispanic, white/Greek, and Black as well. Pre-Med associations? There's an Asian one for that. Being a big school, self-segregation is natural, but it is still a strange phenomenon. The athletes are treated like God's, especially the football and basketball players, and they tend to stick to themselves. The average SAT of UT football players according to a recent AP report was 945, 300 points lower than a regular student. The graduation rate is 49{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c}. it is disgusting how UT prioritizes athletics over academics.

My classmates are a diverse group of people: some sit at the front everyday, eager for the professor's attention and others will be asleep, however most of the students are helpful individuals who can become your friends.

UT students have a lot of school pride.
Brittany
My classmates are students who are hardworking, just like me, that come from many different places.
