Texas College

What does Texas College offer in terms of athletics?

Texas College participates in NAIA athletics. Its reported sports offerings include baseball, basketball, football, soccer, softball, track and field, and volleyball, along with cheerleading.

Varsity participation involves team selection, practice, competition, and NAIA eligibility rules; it is distinct from informal recreation or intramural play. A prospective athlete should confirm that their specific team is active in the intended enrollment year, its current conference and schedule, and the steps required to speak with a coach. An athletic program's existence does not mean a roster position or scholarship is assured.

What student groups and Associations are available at Texas College?

Texas College students can look for ways to participate in campus organizations, performing groups, and faith-related activities alongside their coursework. The college reports a marching band and choral groups, which offer structured involvement for students interested in music.

Recognized organizations can change as student leaders graduate and new groups form. Applicants interested in student government, an academic club, service, or a culturally focused group should request the current roster of active organizations and ask how to join or start one. That is more reliable than assuming that a group listed in an older college publication still meets.

Who studies at Texas College?

Texas College reported 614 enrolled students in the institutional figures supplied for this profile, making it a relatively small college. IPEDS 2024-25 figures identify 221 first-time, degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates and 104 transfer-in students.

In the geographic enrollment figures, 78% of students were Texas residents, 17% came from other U.S. states, and 5% came from other countries. Peterson's 2026 counts identify 503 Black or African American students and 68 Hispanic or Latino students. Those counts describe enrollment; they do not establish what any individual student's experience or views will be.

The college reported a 17-to-1 student-to-faculty ratio. That institution-wide ratio is useful for scale, but actual class size and access to required courses depend on the department, course level, and term.

How does student life look like at Texas College?

Student life at Texas College brings together a residential population and a substantial commuter population: the reported split is 48% living on campus and 52% commuting. Scheduling matters in a community like this, since a student who leaves after class may encounter campus events differently from a resident.

Band, choral activities, athletics, and recurring college events provide opportunities to meet peers beyond a major. Texas College also reports an on-campus health clinic. Students who need ongoing medical care or mental-health support should establish which services the clinic currently provides and what outside options are available, rather than assume that all care is offered on campus.

What libraries are available to students at Texas College?

The D. R. Glass Library is Texas College's main campus library. It serves students who need research materials and study space for coursework, and the college reports that students can reserve study rooms.

Study areas are not reported as open around the clock, so students planning late-night work should check current library hours. For a research-heavy course, it is also worth asking library staff how to reach electronic resources, obtain research help, and request material beyond the campus collection; access and borrowing rules may vary by resource.
