Faculty pay averages $100,404 a year here — a rough proxy for what the school spends on the teaching itself. With 1,741 undergraduates and a residential core, weekends happen on campus — and 60.8% of first-years come back for a second year.
Submitters admitted here typically landed between 970 and 1150 — near the TX middle for four-year schools. Put your own practice estimate on Texas Wesleyan University's range with the SAT calculator, or bring a saved GPA from the grade tools.
Admissions
Scores help here but aren't the gate. If your SAT sits inside the 970–1150 submitter range, sending it likely helps; below it, Texas Wesleyan University's own policy says you can leave it out.
