Life at McMurry

Prepare to Make Your Mark

At McMurry, we believe college is about more than academics—it’s about how you spend your time, the connections you make, and the person you become. Outside the classroom, you’ll find countless opportunities to get involved, whether through social clubs, intramural sports, faith-based organizations, or academic clubs. No matter your interest, there’s a place for you here.

Campus involvement is a powerful learning laboratory, helping you develop leadership skills and life experiences that extend far beyond college. Through participation, you’ll strengthen your abilities in communication, decision-making, problem-solving, time management, motivation, and delegation. Along the way, you’ll discover new passions, form lasting friendships, and create memories that will stay with you for a lifetime.

At McMurry, your path is yours to shape—but the opportunities are endless.
