As I have my heart set out for Texas Tech, I just continue to have these doubts that with the campus being way too large, I won't find any friends, the people won't be friendly as they were when I took a campus tour, and that the classes will be too big that I won't have that personal one-on-one time with my professors and will be forced to be taught by a supplement instructors which I don't want nor like. I was researching that Angelo State University is within the Texas Tech system, they have a PT school, smaller student body and similar traditions as Tech. However, I've never been to San Angelo, TX before and I do want to experience that true college life, make life-long friends and have overall fun while earning my Bachelors degree in Kinesiology.

Does any recent or past alumni have any advice they can suggest? Or should I just stop having doubts and go to Tech?

Class of 1994 here!
I went to a huge high school, so I didn't want to go to a huge college. ASU was the right size for me. The Carr Scholarship also made a huge difference in my decision!
When I went there, TAs were very rare, but I do not know if that is still the case. The PT school was added the year I graduated.
ASU is a recent addition to the Tech system, so traditions aren't necessarily the same. ASU does have its own traditions, and it is a fun, friendly school. I still have lots of friends from college, and I met my husband there!
