Academics
Studying online: most students study entirely online
In Fall 2023, 1,468 of Texas A&M University-Central Texas's 2,255 students (65%) were enrolled entirely at a distance. A further 469 (21%) took at least one distance course alongside in-person study.
Distance-education figures count STUDENTS enrolled in Fall 2023, not programs on offer. "Exclusively at a distance" means a student took only distance courses that term. A college with few or no such students may still run online courses or an online degree, so a low figure is not evidence that online study is unavailable, and a high one is not a judgement of quality either way.

- What is the acceptance rate at Texas A&M University-Central Texas?
- The most recently reported acceptance rate at Texas A&M University-Central Texas is approximately 100%.

- How much does Texas A&M University-Central Texas actually cost after financial aid?
- The average net price at Texas A&M University-Central Texas is approximately $1,300 per year. Net price is the total cost of attendance minus grants and scholarships that never have to be repaid, so it is what students actually paid rather than the published sticker price. These are averages for students who received federal aid in a prior cohort, not a quote for any individual family. Run the institution's own Net Price Calculator for a figure specific to you.

- Students who borrowed at Texas A&M University-Central Texas left with a median of approximately $17,750 in federal loans, and about 46% of students took federal loans at all. Both numbers matter: a median describes only the students who borrowed, so it reads very differently at a school where most students borrow than at one where few do. Federal loans only, so private and parent borrowing are not included.
