Texas and Texas A&M are the flagship universities of Texas. Both schools are very large and enrollment is very competitive. At A&M alot of the 10% ers are only being admitted into the general studies major (you must declare a major at 60 hours). They have to earn there way into the various colleges. Tuition is now 20% higher at these 2 schools than other state schools. Both are trying to limit enrollment, but this law is preventing this. I think automatically admitting students to schools like these can set them up for failure if they didn' t come prepared. Some will meet the challenge and some will get lost in the shuffle.
