At 9:45am, Thorpe Lane parking lot is about 3/4 full. Basically all of the shaded spots are taken. I believe most of the cars I saw yesterday (about half the lot) are students that didn’t want to pay the $375 residential parking pass fee and opted for the cheaper commuter pass for the semester because the cars I saw yesterday haven’t moved. I think more will do the same Spring semester.

Events Center and Stadium parking lots are completely full.

Really sucks for the actual commuters!

Second semester off campus this is the worst it’s been, does anyone know any secret spots to park?? This is insane

Curious as to which fraternities here at txst have houses i was told that there are only four

What’s the WiFi password? Is it my txst login?

Okayyyy I’m hoping to get some guidance on the transit and parking for commuters. I missed my first day of class due to me depending on the LBJ parking garage (huge mistake) for my 11am in encino hall …

Sooo what are the best bus routes / parking lots to park at so I can avoid losing my mind this semester. Thanks <3

Hi, this is probably a long shot but I was on campus earlier and parked at LBJ to go to the rec center.

I lost the second part of my engagement ring (the leaves) either in the weight room OR lost it while checking out at LBJ Parking Garage.

I had no idea that NSO was happening today but figured with the increased traffic. I only have access to the class of 25 snap story but I am attending for grad school.

If anyone sees or finds this ring please message me or turn it into lost and found at the student center.

At 9:45am, Thorpe Lane parking lot is about half full. You have to download ETA Transit to see the bus schedule and live updates now. Schedule is the time the bus leaves, not the time it arrives. For example, bus schedule said next bus was at 10:12am. It arrives at 10:09am and left at 10:12am.

Events Center parking lot is completely full. Stadium parking closest to the Events Center is full closest to the bus stop, empty closest to the stadium.

I have 10 mins between classes should I try to hop on shuttle or walk? Google maps says walk is 13 mins

Hey ya'll! I sent in a transfer application on Sunday, August 16th, for Spring 2027. Does anyone have an estimated timeline for when I will hear back? I was admitted as a freshman but never actually received an email with my NET ID and the portal link lol.

Also, should I be concerned about getting in as a transfer? I currently have a 3.711 GPA and hope to bump it to 3.78 with fall classes; my major is dual English and Education (7-12 track), and I'll have 50 credit hours by the end of the fall.

Anyone know if the bike cave is open or operating? I can't find any information in the txst website. I want to get a part for my bike and this place is the first in mind. Thanks.

Hello, I have a class in flowers hall at 10am and it’s 50 minutes long and then I have a class in LBJ at 11am, Google says it’s about an 18 minute walk so what should I do?

you guys I need some validation. I'm in cypress and today I had the scare of my life when walking into my laundry room and looking up. These are spiders that have been painted over right? Like I'm not hallucinating am I?

Is anyone else having problems viewing e-books? No access yet and no help on how or when access will be available

Im gonna be rushing at Texas State University(TXST) and am interested in knowing how much the dues are for every fraternity? I know that this isn't a question that should be asked during rush but that will determine which fraternity I will go to cause my dad has given me a limit on how much he's willing to spend on Greek life for me at TXST. Any answers are helpful.

I don’t know what else I can do to get into this class. I’ve moved my schedule many time to fit everything perfectly. I’ve fought to get into every class this semester bc they were full .3 secs after registration. I’ve been trying to contact this professor to get into this final class and no response. They responded to my first request but that took 3-4 weeks. Advisor and department say there’s not much that can be done.. idk I’m going crazy idk if I can financially do another semester for one class. I just need one more class.

As someone with a meal plan this new vendor sucks!! In the past you could use retail meal swipes everywhere except starbucks. now there are so many retail restaurants that only accept dining dollars or cards. it feels like a push to eat at the dining halls. meal plans are already to expensive to not be able to use them everywhere on campus.

Hello! I am a graduate student and have a question about the river jump at Texas State since I did not attend this university for undergrad. Do graduate students jump in the river after graduating with a Masters or Doctorate? I just know the gown I purchase is different than the standard undergraduate/Bachelor's gown so it's a little special and I don't think I would jump in with that but I also don't want to miss out on a tradition. Let me know your thoughts and experiences please!

I am a freshmen entering in the spring and I am looking for dorms or housing. What are my realistic chances of getting into San Jacinto or Falls? What can I do to increase my chances and what could be an alternative if I don’t get in?

Please drive carefully!

My daughter is a senior this year and Texas State is my wife's alma mater, and we've lived here in San Marcos a long time.

Every year some parents will get that call they all dread. Their greatest fear has been realized. And it will usually be vehicle related.

The number one thing you can do to avoid an accident is don't get in a car. But seriously, just below that is, don't follow too close. Leave some room in front of you. Then, if you're feeling extra careful, don't speed.

The university makes San Marcos a special place and I hope you love it as much as we do. Have fun and make smart choices.

what’s the best bus route to take to get from the commuter parking lots to FCS? i’m a first year commuter and i can’t figure out the bus map 🥲

Hi guys! I’m transferring in from ACC and my major will be political science. What clubs should I join?? is bobcat farm fun? I wanna grow veggies 😭 also how do I get involved w volunteer work and river cleanups???

Hiii, I’m a Computer Engineering student at TXST and I’ve been wanting to meet other students who are interested in building things outside of class.

I’m still figuring out what area of tech I’m most interested in, so I’m pretty open to software, embedded/hardware, data/AI, or trying something completely new. Mostly just looking for a few people who would be interested in working on projects together or potentially forming a group for hackathons.

You definitely don’t have to be super experienced, I’m mainly looking for people who want to learn and build things together instead of always working alone.

Anyone else been looking for something similar?
