My experience at Texas A&M University-Commerce was a true insight into the greed and wastefulness of the Texas A&M University System. The worst advisor I have ever come into contact with was promoted, the school is underfunded and pouring money into degree paths and programs that aren't growing while the single degree path that has doubled in size in 3 years has the same amount of teachers it had in the 1990s. Student spirit is non-existent because everyone who is there chose it because they either... Read More couldn't get into A&M College Station or didn't have enough money to go anywhere else. While there are bright spots especially in the Agriculture department and in certain other programs I came into contact with. Do not for any reason consider this college for anything other than a price saving matter. Leadership especially at provost and president level are only concerned with prestige and not what's best for the college moving up to division 1 was only for a resume for this people and not for the good of the school. It is always under construction for things to make the college better but always run out of money and prioritize taking away what little parking there is for an "alumni center". I will repeat myself do not attend this university if you can help it.

While I've had some professors at Commerce who were dedicated and provided a quality education, my overall experience has been disappointing. I've often felt ignored by staff when addressing issues, particularly with financial aid and other concerns. Additionally, I've encountered professors lacking in-depth knowledge of their subjects. Although the tuition is more affordable compared to other colleges, it seems to be reflected in the quality of assistance and education offered. Prospective students... Read More should be mindful that the lower cost might correlate with the level of support and educational experience they receive.

I've obtained both a bachelor's degree in psychology and a master's degree in education administration. It's my psychology degree that afforded me pointed and needed insights to better understand and stabilize my grasp about the varied negative, trivial and disruptive dynamics, ills and dysfunctions within me, my family and my housing projects and surrounding communities of others. I was then equipped with a burning passion to help other youth and families overcome the woes within, as well as within... Read More their toxic and dysfunctio family, as well as within their community. To do so within a more concentrated arena, I used my psychology to enter teaching at the high school level in special education, later taught AP classes, business marketing and eventually used my master in education administration to become a school level administrator at the high school level, to more expand my service from more students to helping educational systems to better equip teachers and staff to better service, reach, equip and prepare our youth to become proficient, efficient and sufficient in applying soft and hard skills, within work force industries!!!

My degree is Secondary Ed with a minor (18 hours) of MATH so that I can teach Dual Credit or adjunct at a community college . Secondary Ed has been great! But don't go to Commerce for any graduate MATH if you have similar goals. The courses are meant for M.S. and Ph.D. students in Math only. They are entirely unreasonable for in-service teachers. They offer very few courses that are meant for students from outside of their department. And the few they do offer are very rarely put on the schedule.... Read More The 3-year course schedule is inaccurate; don't try to use it do any planning. The department chair will advise you to take MTE courses, but don't!!! They will not enable to you teach DC or CC. I can't stress this enough... go elsewhere. for graduate MATH courses.

I was an international student at this school. I still remember the first week I attended this school I had to buy a car immediately to commute from Commerce to my class in Mesquite and McKinney. It was a quite challenging but it has developed me to be a quick adjusted person to a new culture and environment. Overall the program was good, the professors were helpful and knowledgable, and the department also has their own clinic for students to do practicum and internship. I believed this school would... Read More be one of the best choices for local students, and for internationals, if you like to live in city and don't mind not to always get along with your classmates (since most them were busy with their works, families and assignments) so this school would be a right place for you.

Texas A&M University at Commerce is a relatively small college located in a town that can hardly be classified as a town. The town has one Walmart, one Brookshires, and plenty of fast food. Not exactly the college students dream. Nonetheless, whatever the environment around the school lacks, the schools environment itself makes up for. TAMUC is a college that truly does care for its students and their students education. Opportunities both social and curricular are abundant, so youll always have... Read More an opportunity to make friends or network. Or maybe you just want to enjoy the free stuff without having to join any organizations or clubs? Thats fine, organizations give out free stuff all the time on campus! The cafeteria is a must because its buffet style with actual really good food. And you can stay all day if you wanted to (it has really good WiFi access). The library staff is very friendly with whatever you need, and they are always so helpful if you need to find resources for papers or projects. There are even little study rooms that you can rent to study with a group or by yourself without being disturbed by others around you. There are two, count them TWO, Starbucks on campus, and other eateries. I would absolutely encourage potential students to at least tour the campus. The campus has such a warm feel to it. Student Accounts and Financial Aid are always so helpful with any needs or questions you may have, and the tuition rates are competitive to the big brand schools such as Texas A&M University or University of Texas. I love the school, and I love my memories I have there.

You will not find another AACSB (gold standard) accredited college for this price. Some of that is reflected in the quality of the online portal, and the classes are quite full so it can be a little tough to get instructor interaction. However, it has not been a problem for me. The level of rigor is a good blend since I continue to be a working professional as well as having a busy personal and family life. I think that's the critical piece, you can take these classes, and learn everything that you... Read More need to know about business decision-making without enormous sacrifices. If you are dependent on an MBA to radically change the course of your life, then you should probably aim a little upwards; but if you are simply looking to learn about business decision-making (particularly if, like me, you are in the military with no expsosure to fundamentals of accounting, finance, and marketing) then this is right up your alley. Highly recommend!

Texas A& M University - Commerce is absolutely phenomenal. I picked from a myriad of different schools and somehow chose TAMUC. The instructors are diligent and knowledgeable, the Financial Aid office is warm and welcoming and the southern hospitality was at an all time high. The degree program was rigorous enough to make me feel like my degree was worth the money but I still felt I was learning and retaining information at a great pace. The classes I took connected my undergraduate learnings and... Read More perpetuated them onto a new level. I appreciate this program and I'm so happy I chose it!

I am an international student came here to study masters in technology management program. Firstly the program " Masters in Technology Management" doesn't have anything tech in the course. Most of the syllabus revolves around drones, project management and leadership. The program doesn't have any internship or CPT which is a huge disadvantage. There are no scholarships available for this course. This is more like a mini PHD where in you have to do so much research on several topics which are absolutely... Read More waste and have no relevance in the practical world. Neither is this degree valued for getting a job. The professors are only bothered about having research in APA format and doing coursework like a research with no relevance to the practical corporate world. As an international student, i took this course with a hope to get some practical exposure like internship and getting placed in a technology company. But i have wasted all my TIME, MONEY and EFFORT on this useless course. The professors are very much involved in their research work and least interested in teaching or helping students be prepared for corporate world.

This school is awesome! Top notch education that prepared me for life during and after 20 years of military service. I was most impressed by the involvement of the professors in student success. Most of the classes were very engaging, and the immediate feedback from professors and peers enhanced the quality of study. Even while completing rigorous work, the amount of support I received was very encouraging and made the toughest assignments enjoyable to experience. The team projects placed students... Read More in a situation to, not only hold themselves accountable, but hold their peers accountable which is not an easy thing to do sometimes. However, great relationships formed and a sense of accomplishment shared by others who assisted in meeting goals can not be matched. I have definitely come away from my program with a positive view of my career, which is just getting started (again).

Texas A&M University - Commerce made my online time earning my Bachelors degree accessible and achievable. Yes there were many rigorous days where I wish I could sit down with my professor face to face, but if you have resources of your own outside of class that helps too. As a working single mother of a a little boy, I really enjoyed that I was given the freedom to be as creative as possible in my class. I loved my online time at TAMUC. I felt so welcome on the campus when I finally got to visit... Read More it during graduation weekend. TAMUC is home, GO LIONS!!

Beginning the master's degree process was terrifying to me at first, especially the interview to even get chosen to be in the graduate program! After my interview for the program I quickly learned that this was a school I wanted to be a part of because even within the interview the professors had about 3 people at a time come in so already I felt a little weight lifted off my shoulders by being surrounded by fellow interviewees. Another wonderful aspect of the interview was that the interviewers... Read More clearly wanted everyone to feel comfortable and succeed during the interview process and throughout the grad school program. My first day of class (Intro into Counseling) was another intimidating moment I remember which was also met by compassion and empathy from my professors. Each professor I encountered my first day (and all throughout the program) really worked hard to help everyone be successful during each semester and happily answered any questions anyone had. I always felt comforted knowing that if I ever needed help that my professors were only an e-mail or a phone call away! As I look back on the last 2 years I've been in the program, I am so thankful for all the fellow grad students I've met and made connections with, all the faculty that helped me develop as a person as well as a counselor, and for all the courses that worked well with my schedule! If I had to do it over again, there's no question that I would go to Texas A&M University-Commerce again!
