• First-year students have the opportunity to take seminars designed to develop a sense of belonging and the skills and self-confidence needed for academic success. Through transitional programs, they are provided with opportunities to grow and learn at all levels of development.
• The TCU Leadership Center offers a wide variety of co-curricular classes and programs that expose students to contemporary leadership topics and opportunities for leadership development.
• Students have the chance to become involved in the University through more than 200 academic, professional and social organizations.
• TCU’s signet ring, which displays the University’s seal, is presented to Horned Frogs in a special ceremony at the beginning of their senior year.
• Each year, the 50th reunion class hosts a weekend of events, including marching in the May Commencement processional, symbolizing the lifelong ties that Horned Frogs forge with their alma mater.

Point of pride: From the alumni Easter egg hunt to freshman Frog Camp to the 50th reunion and beyond, Horned Frogs forge lifelong ties with TCU and each other.
