Grad school wish list:

Close to family
Tuition Aid
Football Team
Campus Carry
Military/PTSD experience

My list of schools I am considering expanded greatly after SMU and Baylor opted out of Campus Carry. Right now Texas A&M is probably my top choice with UNT, Baylor, and SMU all competing for second.
