QCOSTARICA — In light of the recent suspension of visas for foreign students in the United States, Texas Tech University – Costa Rica (TTU-CR) offers a reliable option for those seeking a U.S. degree.
Located on Avenida Escazú, TTU-CR is the satellite campus of Texas Tech University based in Lubbock, Texas, offering academic programs entirely in English, identical to those offered on the main campus.
“Given the changing geopolitical landscape, and especially regarding obtaining a U.S. visa for study, we have the opportunity to offer students the highest quality, U.S.-style education without the need to apply for a student visa. You can earn your U.S. degree right here in Costa Rica, meeting the same requirements as in the United States and enjoying the same quality of faculty, student life, and enriching experiences on our campus. All of this without having to travel abroad,” Dr. Ellen Rose, executive director of Texas Tech University Costa Rica, told La República.

TTU-CR offers programs in high-demand global areas such as Electrical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Computer Science, Business Administration, and Hotel, Restaurant, and Institutional Management. It also provides students the flexibility to begin their studies in Costa Rica and later relocate to the main campus, without changes to the academic content or the degree awarded.
“If at any point during your studies you want to go to the United States and circumstances allow, you don’t even need to transfer; you simply change your campus designation. It’s not a separate admissions process; once you’re a Texas Tech student, you’re a student regardless of whether you’re in Costa Rica or Texas. You can make that change after one semester, after one year, after two or three years; there’s no specific deadline. That option is always open. You can also complete the full four years here in Costa Rica and earn your U.S. degree from Texas Tech University,” added Dr. Rose.
