It's a smaller school, so it doesn't have the campus life or party scene of bigger UT schools. However, there's a lot more one-on-one time with professors and you can actually form connections with them to get letters of recommendation. The environment isn't overly competitive, so you feel like you can succeed here.

The University of Texas at Tyler is a beautiful campus with many places to study without being distracted or interrupted. Most professors are hands on with each student and makes sure every instruction is well explained for students to do well in their class. The university has many other students hold study sessions and extra resources just in case a student is struggling in this course which helped me do well in certain classes. I enjoy coming to this college and learning from some amazing professors.
