About This School
Angelo State University is a public institution located in San Angelo, Texas with approximately 5,515 undergraduate students enrolled. Angelo State University has an open or accessible admissions process, with an acceptance rate of 79%. The average net price after financial aid is $12,915 per year. The graduation rate is 41%, and the typical graduate earns $46,300 within 10 years of enrollment.
Angelo State University is a public university in San Angelo, Texas, United States. It was founded in 1928 as San Angelo College. It gained university status and awarded its first baccalaureate degrees in 1967 and graduate degrees in 1969, the same year it took on its current name. It offers 50 undergraduate programs and 31 graduate programs. It is the second-largest campus in the Texas Tech University System.
The numbers tell a mixed story here — with a 79% acceptance rate and an average net price of just $12,915 per year, this is one of the more accessible and affordable public university options in Texas, and the relatively low median debt of $12,394 at graduation reflects that value. The concern worth flagging is the 41% graduation rate, which means fewer than half of students who start here finish — that's a real signal to dig into whether the support structure and your intended major are a good fit before committing. Worth considering if you're cost-conscious and self-directed, but go in with a clear plan and talk to current students about what keeps people from finishing.
