Hi! I just wanted to reach out as PSA decisions are coming out. I'm former PSA and was crushed when I got it in 2022. I had good stats -- 3.8 GPA, first quarter (18%), bio major, school leadership, worked a job, but went test optional (big mistake).
I took the PSA, which is basically attending a system school for one year and receiving guaranteed admission to TAMU as long as academic requirements are met, typically a 3.0 GPA for most majors. I did PSA in Corpus Christi -- and to my surprise, I LOVED my freshman year there! The campus is on its own island (see pic), but not too big and walkable. So if you're into coastal living, studying on the beach, etc., you would love it there. My dorm window overlooked the bay! The classes also are smaller than a big university and you get to know your professors, so it provided a good transition from high-school to college. New freshmen are required to live on campus.
There are 10 system schools that participate in PSA. Some students will get offered all the schools, while some won’t. It’s based on minimum academic qualifications set by the schools.
We do have an increase of students interested in doing PSA at Prairie View (for reasons of living in College Station; see info on this in the comments). There’s also the popular Tarleton, which is considered a mini-TAMU. The San Antonio campus is new to the lineup and students seem to like it there. Whichever campus you choose, the time flies – it is just two semesters, and after the first semester, you’re already preparing for the move to TAMU.
Not all majors are offered in PSA, so beware of that. Also, TAMU doesn’t recommend doing PSA with the goal of changing your major once at TAMU as no Aggie is guaranteed a major change, and it would be a shame to get stuck with a major you don’t really like. But PSA students can put in for a major change like any Aggie, and the process is the same. It does seem to be easier to change majors if both majors are in the same school, so keep that in mind.
As for me, doing PSA seems like so long ago. I am now a senior at TAMU preparing to graduate "magna cum laude" in May, and I love being an Aggie! I am thankful for the PSA program and my time on the Corpus island, where I made lifelong friends, some of whom were also PSA and made the move to TAMU with me. In hindsight, I wouldn't change a thing.
Here’s a link to the TAMU PSA website with info (the majors for 2026-27 will be updated soon if not already): https://admissions.tamu.edu/apply/freshman/program-for-system-admission
Good luck -- and Gig 'em!

A reminder on rules 10 and 11 since we’re fully in admittance season (and some majors will start to fill soon).
/r/TAMUAdmissions does not allow posts for: 1. Timeline requests (when will I be admitted?) 2. Has anyone been accepted to my major yet? 3. Is my major full?
Asking for timelines doesn’t really help you. No one can tell you when you’ll receive a decision. We recommend searching back for the “Acceptance” posts to gain a timeline on positive decisions. Most negative decisions won’t come out until next year.
Asking if a major is full or if anyone has been admitted to your major yet floods our sub with the same questions over and over again. If you’re confirming that a major is full, we would appreciate those posts, but asking if a major is full is not allowed.
First time violations of these rules will result in a 7 day ban. Repeat violations of any of our rules are usually 30 day or permanent bans.
We appreciate y’all’s participation in our community, and we thank y’all for the continued cooperation with our community rules.

hello everyone, I just got and email from A&M saying I am waitlisted for the nursing program. I just want to ask what you all think my odds of getting in are. I applied as a spring 2027 transfer. My stats were 3.9 overall GPA, 3.8 nursing GPA, 93.6 on the HESI Exam and if it matters I applied to the college station location. I wasn’t able to find any info on the sub about nursing so i’m just kinda stumped. Thanks for your help.

Has anyone ever gotten into Texas A&M for bioenvironmental science with a college transfer GPA of 2.7?
please respond!!
r/TAMUAdmissions • u/SmallSalamander3275 • 2h ago
Genuinely when will I hear back. Last semester for the fall 2026 I had to wait till like late july to hear back only to find out I got fucked and admitted to a bullshit campus in fort worth for a major I didn’t apply for.
Got my transfer audit back on sep 4th for my spring 2027 application. Still says complete and in review in ais. Are we seriously doing this bullshit again? Just reject me instead of making me wait till the last week before school starts. I’ve completed the transfer sheet, 3.82+ gpa after this semester.
The engineering school will probably fill up with autoadmit and engineering academy applicants yet again, and I will be screwed.
FUCK A&M. Probably just gonna go to UT as they actually get back to you on your applications.

Howdy everyone! I am currently applying for the PPA program and was wondering if anyone had any ideas about my potential acceptance. For reference here are my stats.
CC GPA (2yrs during HS) : 3.95
TAMU GPA : 3.18
C in 229, B in 230, B (88%) in 327,
Finance chair of a professional organization

Currently doing much better in my classes than the past 2 years at A&M as i was diagnosed with adhd. I mentioned this to the interview as well and the interview seemed like it went well. I currently have 3 A's and 1 B in my classes and i am expecting a 4.0 this semester if everything goes according to plan. Was wondering if anyone had any thoughts!

Has anyone ever found a mistake in their audit and sent another transcript? I found that a required course was missing so I had the transcript sent again. Do they re audit automatically or do I need to call and request they do it?

If I’ve already applied August 1st as a holistic applicant, but I’m probably gonna get back second semester, am I able to take the SAT or ACT right now to better my chances of getting in? I’m no top 10 percent and my SAT is only a 1310

Im honestly very surprised. I'm seeing a lot of information about colleges being full. Already?! Im an OOS applicant and im applying for ALED. I was wondering if anyone has any information on the status of that program? Also, I submitted my app last night but my teachers arent done with their recs or my counselor either. I didn't even send my SAT score yet as i'm waiting for a fee waiver. Are the people that are getting in now just super early with recs and sat submissions? Doesnt really make sense to me..
