The Aggie Ring is the most visible symbol of the Aggie Network that connects Aggies around the world. As a Texas A&M Law student, you are part of this enduring tradition.
The Aggie Ring Program is administered by The Association of Former Students (AFS).
Texas A&M University School of Law hosts Law School Aggie Ring Day at the Fort Worth campus separate from the Aggie Ring Day in College Station. The Law School Assistant Director of External and Alumni Relations, Stephanie Thompson '93, assists Law students with Aggie Ring sizing. The Law School follows The Association of Former Students' Aggie Ring Program eligibility requirements and order deadlines.
