Hey y'all, I'm trying to save time on applications by applying to some Texas schools that don't require essays. Anyone know of any good options? I'd love to hear your suggestions! :)
Hello! It's definitely a good idea to balance your college application list with some schools that don't require essays. In Texas, there are several options you can consider. Here are a few:
1. Texas A&M University: While the main campus (College Station) does require essays for the application, some of their satellite campuses, such as Texas A&M Galveston and Texas A&M Commerce, may not require essays for certain programs.
2. Texas State University: Texas State does not require essays for general admission. However, certain programs or scholarships within the university might ask for essays or personal statements.
3. Sam Houston State University: This university typically does not require essays for general admission. As with Texas State, certain programs, departments, or scholarships might request additional essays or personal statements.
4. Texas Tech University: Although Texas Tech's main campus may require essays, some of its regional campuses might not. Be sure to check the requirements for the specific programs and campuses you are interested in.
5. Stephen F. Austin State University (SFASU): They generally do not require essays for undergraduates applying through ApplyTexas or the Common Application.
Keep in mind that requirements may change, so it's always a good idea to double-check with the schools themselves before you apply. Additionally, while these colleges might not require essays for general admission, you should still be aware of possible required essays for specific programs or scholarships.
Best of luck with your college applications!
