TEXAS STATE UNIVERSITY
The Princeton Review has named Texas State University one of the nation’s best institutions for undergraduates to earn their college degree.
The education services company profiles and recommends Texas State in the 2025 edition of its annual college guide, The Best 390 Colleges. The book does not rank the universities in numerical order.
Only about 15% of America’s four-year colleges and universities are profiled in the book.
Unlike college rankings that focus exclusively on academics and that are derived solely from institutional data and college administrator “peer” reviews, the Princeton Review rankings, tallied in multiple categories, are derived from student reports of their experiences at the schools. For the ranking lists, the Princeton Review data operations team tallied 168,000 surveys of students at the schools in The Best 390 Colleges (about 430 per school on average). The surveys were conducted in 202324 and/or the previous two academic years. The 89-question survey asked students to rate their pro- fessors, administrators, financial aid, campus amenities, school services and other aspects of life at their colleges on a fivepoint scale and to report on their experiences at them.
