McMurry University
At McMurry University, you'll find small classes, caring professors, and a diverse and active student body with 1,200+ students and an 13:1 student to faculty ratio. Our students compete in 24 intercollegiate sports including football, swimming, wrestling, and esports (with over 40 conference championships in the last 25 years, go War Hawks!) and lead over 40 clubs and organizations. In the classroom, students like you are able to put their education into practice, whether by managing our completely student-run investment fund of $1,000,000 from the university’s endowment, researching the metastasis of breast cancer (pink lab coats and all), working directly in the region's largest healthcare facility through our Nursing School, or observing in the magnet classroom of 5th graders on campus. How will you make your mark at McMurry?
