The 10% refers to the fact that at some flagship state universities, such as UT-Austin, you typically need to be in the top ten percent of your high school class to be accepted.

In Texas, the 10% rule states that all public Texas universities have to guarantee admission to all high school students that were top 10% in their graduating class. This sometimes comes close to filling up the incoming Freshman class with just the top 10% kids.
Thus, girls in top 15% of their graduation class may not have a spot at UT, etc and go out of state to OSU.

It's amazing isn't it? The Gamma Phi chapter at Ok State is particularly nice. Great chapter when I was on campus and still is.

In addition, public state Universities in OK, AR, and LA will all wave out-of-state tuition for Texas students if the student scores a certain score on their ACT/SAT.

The university of Arkansas will waive out of state tuition for any state if the ACT/SAT or GPA is a certain score. That perk is not limited to Texans.
