Data source(s) and notes about the submission:

Texas A&M is firmly committed to community service, so much so that one of our six core values is Selfless Service. Our score for this category does not accurately reflect the investment our students make every year in community service because at this time we are unable to capture the total number of volunteers and the hours they dedicate to selfless service.

Additionally, the global pandemic that hit during the spring 2020 semester and extended through the Fall 202-Spring 2021 academic school significantly impacted students’ ability to engage in service as desired due to stringent guidelines to keep our local, national, and global community safe. Therefore, the typical number of hours reported have been significantly impacted by COVID-19.
