Each year, we receive over 59,000 applications for our freshman class, which means we have more qualified applicants than we can admit.

If we are unable to offer you full admission to the College Station campus, don't worry. Your dream of attending Texas A&M doesn't stop there, as we may be able to admit you through one of the following pathways.  

You will be considered for admission to your first and second choice majors in College Station prior to being considered for any pathways.
