UTSA Overview
The University of Texas at San Antonio serves the San Antonio metropolitan area 
and the broader region of South Texas through programs and services offered from its three campuses: Main Campus, Downtown Campus and Hemisfair Park Campus.
With more than 29,100 students enrolled in 133 undergraduate and graduate degree programs, UTSA is the second-largest institution in the University of Texas System and has been one of the state's fastest-growing public universities for much of the last decade.
UTSA offers 64 bachelor's, 48 master's and 21 doctoral degree programs. With many doctoral programs and master's programs in the planning stages or awaiting final approval, UTSA is rapidly moving toward classification as a doctoral/research intensive institution. 
The university's three campuses provide access and opportunity for large numbers of historically underserved students. More than 56 percent of UTSA's students come from groups underrepresented in higher education. Many students are the first in their families to attend a college or university.
