ℹ️ A note about this profile

Texas College doesn't publish standardized-test bands or admit-rate data to IPEDS. That usually means the institution is open-admission (no selectivity gate), graduate-focused, or small enough that the federal survey suppresses the numbers. The cost, program, and outcomes data below is still complete — just no admissions-difficulty signal to surface. If you're searching for a more selective Ivy-tier "Texas", try the search at the top of the page.

🎯 Parent/student verdict

Worth a look

Heavy discounting — aid recipients average ~$10,958/yr net; strong students should also check the merit grid.

✅ Best for

  • Students drawn to Business, Management, & Marketing or Liberal Arts, Humanities, & General Studies (the two biggest majors)
  • Families wanting a small liberal-arts experience

Verdict is composed from this college's structured data (admit rate, SAT bands, net price by income, Carnegie classification, scholarship grids) using transparent rule thresholds — not a chat-bot's opinion.

💰 The real cost

What families at your income actually pay

Above $110K income — where most Reach families sit — aid-receiving families average $16,106/yr at Texas College. Lower brackets pay less — the full ladder is below. One caveat, once: every bracket figure here averages only the families in that bracket who received aid — it says nothing about whether your family will qualify.

🔎 Earning over $110K? You're above the top federal bracket — the median family headed by a 45-to-54-year-old (the prime college-parent years) earned about $134K in 2024, and the federal data lumps everyone from $110K to $1M+ into one row.

Whether you'll get need aidGrant money based on your family's finances (via FAFSA and the college's own forms), not your student's stats. at this income is entirely college-specific: a few heavily-endowed schools meet full need well past $150K, while many others give little above the brackets shown — there, merit scholarships, where offered, become the realistic lever.
