The caring professors make TxWes great!
Overall 4.6
I love how small the campus is and how I always had somewhere to hang in between classes. I do not like large crowds so I easily found places of silence almost anyone on campus. All of my professors were incredibly helpful, I could not have asked for a better experience.
Overall 4.4
Best education, environment and services. The teacher student ratio is great. The availability of time to meet professors are great. Scholarships are great and available for many that qualify as a good student. Social organization on campus help build charisma, characteristics and preparation to enter the real world. Best University I have attended

I love this university! The first time I came for a tour I felt like I was home, and at that moment I knew this was the place I wanted to study at. The professors are great, super friendly just like most people on campus. There are many activities going on on campus every day. The dining hall could use a little improvement, but good overall :D

I love this schoo. They are currently making many upgrades to the campus and we are very excited about the changes. It is small which gives you a one on one feel while you are a student which is priceless.

Bad reviews
Overall 1.4
This school has no spirit. Located in somewhat of a bad part of town and needs a make over. As much as it costs to attend this university, the money needs to go towards bettering the environment and redoing some of the buildings. Known for its law school and caters to its business school. Could use more evening science classes for working students.
Overall 1.4
Honestly, my experience here has been atrocious. The teachers and classes are fine, but the administration is unbearable. I've never actually seen my dean's face. It took me three weeks to finalize my financial aid. The bureaucratic obstacle course is hardly worth the time and effort put in. This school might be right for you, but it wasn't for me.

Food is really really bad! That is the worst thing on this campus!

The school is an all-around disappointment. Every other teacher and staff member is rude and unprofessional and they assume that every student is the same. Most classes, especially in the education department, are unorganized and unstructured. The school itself lacks in development and understanding of their students.
