Congrats? Do potential students decide between schools based on APLU status?

It gets you on level with other DI state institutions and should help when it comes to research status.

Absotively. There is a push for bolstering Tarleton's Engineering programs. This, coupled with the recent Carnegie R2 Research distinction, will certainly help move things along. Doesn't hurt in our journey toward FBS, either. Our peer institution profile just changed dramatically.

And this is why APLU and Carnage R2 are huge upgrades for Tarleton.

More impressed by the Carnegie R2 (seriously, congratulations) than the APLU.
