I think the Texas A&M system is around approximately 123k total. I'm not sure of how many hopeful aggies attend Blinn in Bryan but I'm sure it is quite a few as well.
We should only count our main campuses for population.

Agreed. A&M's system has been expanding a lot in the last few decades. We built a campus in Qatar, bought Tarlton University, bought a dentistry school (Baylor College of Dentistry), and are in the process of buying a law school (Texas Wesleyan). All of these schools developed independently of A&M (except Qatar).
