A sterling green space at Texas A&M University, Aggie Park quickly became the heart of  life on campus after opening in 2022. Envisioned and developed by The Association of  Former Students, it was funded by private donations and was a gift to be used by the  entire Aggie Network 365 days a year. 

Transfer Camp and SALT Camp are the two Aggie orientation camps that prepare incoming transfer students and students to the Galveston campus for life as an Aggie. The Association supports scholarships for students to attend T-Camp and SALT Camp, and other needs.
