I've noticed a trend among my friends, if their kid cannot get into A&M or UT via auto admit, they end up at OU, Ark, Ole Miss.
Mostly OU...I was stunned by how many are going up there.
The auto admit rules in TX are basically making good students pick between second tier TX schools or the top tier school in a neighboring state OU, Arky, etc....
With decent scores and grades the OOS school cost the same as in state in TX. Which is more prestigious, good social life, and networking OU or North Texas/Tech/Texas State etc? seems like a no brainer to me.
