Cost to attend A&M is 30k for in state students. So not even including the out of state extra that is 80k x 30k which is 2.4 Billion. 
That's a lot of dough.

These schools are way too big and very impersonal. 15000- 20000 is more like it.

I want to say total undergraduate enrolment in Athens was around 24K my Freshman year, and that felt like a little too much.
I can't imagine 44K. I wonder if that includes grad students and the satellite campuses?

Enrollment figures include both graduate and undergraduate students and in many cases part-time students. We used the most recent enrollment totals from every SEC school's official website. These enrollments numbers are primarily from the 2025, but it varied among schools.

So Vanderbilt is the only school in the sec thats enjoyable because of its "personalness" with Mississippi state in 2nd place?

Alabama went from the early 70's to mid 90's not moving much at all in that regard. The Alabama I went to looked similar to the one my parents went to. It was such a cool place before all the condos perked up in the last 20 years with the all the cool little houses and neighborhoods around the stadium, all with porches. Good times.
Whole city looks different now.

I'd be curious to see what percentage pays full price.

that's a very expensive Cult they have there.

Judging by your comment you like masses of people and a massive University. That’s your prerogative.But many of us prefer a more reasonable size. Bigger definitely does not always make better.

I didnt say that at all. I was replying to what you said, which was based off original post and essentially said every university in the entire SEC is so big its unejoyable except Vanderbilt. Also the next closest is Mississippi state.

Pretty sure the Texas schools numbers are graduate and undergraduate for campus in Austin and College Station only.
It was about 50k when I was at Texas in late 70s/early 80s.

It is progress. But not improvement.

Are those numbers for the MAIN CAMPUS of the schools or the entire system?

It’s main campus. LSU would have around 70,000 counting its satellite campuses.
I’m hoping LSU scales it back fairly soon. we’re letting in way too many retards for additional $$. LSU was around 30,000 when I was in school and it hardly had the infrastructure

FAMU doesn't even have 10k and BC is a private school.

Ole Miss includes the University Medical Center in Jackson. The Oxford campus is considerably less than 25K. Which is actually a good thing.
To me, State & Ole Miss are much more enjoyable campuses just for the fact that you are not crammed amongst 50-60-70-80+ thousand people. Smaller campuses offer a much more personal experience for students.

In 2002 when I went to Bama it was $3,555 per year. Out-of-state tuition and fees for the same period were $9,625. We might have had 15k students studying on campus.
Crazy it’s 5 times higher and there’s 3 times as many students.
