About Texas A & M University

Set on the Northeast Texas prairie, the Commerce campus blends small town calm with big city reach. Classes and labs support study in the arts, sciences, education, and business, known for practical, hands on learning. A bright library, buzzing student center, solid rec facilities, and welcoming residence halls set the scene. Tutoring, advising, and health and counseling sit close by.

Campus life feels friendly and down to earth. Expect clubs, performances, intramurals, and quiet corners under the oaks, with trails and lakes a short drive away. The culture prizes mentoring, service, and Lions pride on game days. Career prep stays concrete with coaching and internships across North Texas and a network that keeps doors open. Coffee spots downtown add local flavor, and homecoming brings town and gown together. Notable alumni include Sam Rayburn.
