We will be visiting Texas this spring to visit some schools our D23 is interested in applying to next year. Our tour starts at UT Austin and ends at TCU with visits to: UT Austin, Texas A&M, Baylor, Texas Tech and TCU. Originally SMU was also on the list, but it just doesn’t seem like the best fit for her.
Day 1 - Arrival - late late
Day 2 - UT Austin Tour and Travel to College Station (looking for maybe 1 awesome don’t miss in town, anything not to miss on campus, and 1 awesome eating place) - Evening travel to College Station staying on campus.
Day 3 - 9 A&M start with Tours most of the day. Evening open
Day 4 - College Station all Day - Travel to Waco Evening (looking for anything interesting in the College Station area including Best Eats/Shopping/any really cool activities?) This is a Saturday
Day 5 - All Day Waco - Magnolia is the plan. Hopefully open on Sundays?
Day 6 - Baylor Tour - Evening to eat and explore more of Waco area. Anything other than Magnolia not to miss in Waco? Where should we eat here?
Day 7 - Travel to Lubbock & explore the area. (good eats? what is there to do in Lubbock?)
Day 8 - Texas Tech Tour 8-12. Eat and travel back to DFW
Da 9 - Open Day for DFW area - Plan shopping for senior pics (Cool boutiques/shopping area? I know Galleria in Dallas anywhere else?) Fort Worth Zoo? We are staying in the Sundance Square area.

Thanks for any tips and tricks to help make our Texas College Roadtrip interesting and hopefully a little mini vacay for my D23 and me.
