Texas Black Colleges and Universities

The Lone Star State is a lively one--you'll never find a lack of places to explore or new things to try. You can hit Austin's Sixth Street for outstanding live music, dine outside on San Antonio's Riverwalk, or get your Ph.D. in shopping at Dallas' Galleria. If you love hiking, El Paso's ringed with mile-high mountains. And, there is no better town than Houston if you're a sports fan.

Some say everything is bigger in Texas, and its selection of historically black colleges is no exception. If you're drawn to big city life, try Huston-Tillotson College, Paul Quinn College, or Texas Southern University. Want small town charm? Check out Jarvis Christian College, Prairie View A&M University, Southwestern Christian College, Texas College, or Wiley College.
