Admitted Students Frequently Asked Questions

Does a student need proof of bacterial meningitis vaccination?
Students admitted for Spring, Summer or Fall 2024 are required to have proof of bacterial meningitis vaccination prior to attending their New Student Conference. Learn more about how to submit your immunization record. 
Will Texas A&M have a waitlist for Fall 2026?
There will be a waitlist for Fall 2026. Decisions will be released by the end of April. Please monitor your AIS portal for updates in status of decision.
Are there any on-campus appointments or meetings available for current or prospective students?
In-person appointments and virtual appointments are available at the Prospective Student Centers.
What is the best way to contact someone in the Admissions Office for assistance?
The best way to contact the Office of Admissions at this time is by email (admissions@tamu.edu). If you are a current applicant and have access to your AIS portal, you can also submit a ‘Contact Us’ // ‘Ask a Question' in your AIS portal and a staff member can assist you.
School Districts are changing their grading to Pass/Fail. Does Texas A&M University have a policy concerning this change?
Texas A&M has no issue with the pass/fail grading if that is what the district chooses to do. It is not an issue with Texas A&M University’s Scholarships & Financial Aid Office. As long as the student successfully graduates from high school and can provide an official transcript documenting the graduation date, this will satisfy our requirement.

  • Location

  • ATM fees

  • Interest rates

  • Online banking features
