About This School

Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center-El Paso is a public institution located in El Paso, Texas with approximately 235 undergraduate students enrolled.

Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center El Paso is a public university focused on the health sciences and located in El Paso, Texas. It was founded in 1969 as a branch campus of the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center and became a separate institution in 2013.

Worth considering if you're set on a health sciences career in the El Paso region — this highly specialized public institution serves just 235 undergraduates, meaning you'll get a focused, career-track experience rather than a traditional broad college environment. The median graduation debt of $12,500 is genuinely low, which is a real advantage when entering healthcare fields that often require additional graduate training. Just go in clear-eyed that the tiny enrollment and narrow mission mean limited campus life, general education options, and academic flexibility.
