History
After an unsuccessful 1923 bid to be selected as the home of Texas Technological College, the residents of San Angelo decided they would create their own college, even if they had to pay for it themselves. Funded by local contributions and a self-imposed county tax, San Angelo Junior College opened its doors in 1928 on North Oakes Street near downtown San Angelo.

i am fully satisfied.
My experience was invaluable for enhancing my research on photo catalytic degradation of drug . I appreciated my supervisor ability to instantly brainstorm advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) mechanisms and suggest potential reactive oxygen species. It helped refine my experimental design by proposing control experiments and identifying key parameters for optimization. Overall, it accelerated my hypothesis generation and deepened my discussion on toxicity and scavenging studies, making my research narrative more robust and compelling for my PhD ambitions.
Budget‑friendly option
I think it's budget friendly school for people who come from low income households, easy to find information on anything, overall enjoyed all my professors, counselors are very helpful and friendly as well
My review of AUF
I’ve had a positive experience at Angeles University Foundation. The academic programs are strong, and the facilities are modern and well-maintained. I appreciate that the institute encourages involvement beyond the classroom through activities and outreach. There’s also a supportive environment between students and faculty, which makes it easier to stay motivated.
