    I'm 25 and this is about the coolest thing I've ever seen. I love Texas and I love this land. I wanted to attend Police Academy but I think Game Warden is the career path for me. Coming from a population 400 town I always loved my local Game Warden. Grew up with my Mom, taught me how to shoot guns safely, took me fishing and hunting. I really can't wait to get this chapter of my life started.

    Our academy graduates have to agree to accept assignment where we need them anywhere in Texas. Our cadets are off most weekends but are required to live at the academy during the week in a dormitory.

    I am so inspired by this video. I am currently looking into a local college for a bachelor's in criminal justice, so I can be a TGW. I've been on the water and outdoors all my life and nothing suits me better than this. It was always my interest joining the army or the navy but GW never crossed my mind till a few months ago. I was off shore fishing and GW's pulled up asking for licenses etc.. idk something about it made me want to be just like them and I also love to protect our waters from trash, and over fishing. I cannot wait to start my classes to become a Texas Game Warden.

      @challenge gamer this is true there are better ways that isn't so costly to vet applicants. Also they seriously need to increase there cadet numbers 40 every 6 months! There are to many people applying for this, the ratio is terrible its easier to get into Harvard. And to get into the academy you pretty much have to volunteer first in the Parks and Wildlife then work as an intern with the game wardens finish your degree then apply for the Academy do all that school full-time and working full-time volunteering and internship and pay for school and bill's stay out of debt is a bitch sure you can live off debt and do it but look what it is doing to us we are miserable.

      I do not have a bachelors degree "yet which I am working on"" but I am a honorably discharged and decorated combat veteran with military law enforcement experience which includes direct combat experience in Afghanistan and Iraq as a Military K9 Law Enforcement Officer. It's a shame that the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department will allow an individual with a piece of paper that states that he or she has a Bachelors degree to be accepted to the Academy even though he or she may have never handled a weapon, never had any law enforcement experience, never served in the military or never had any kind of life experience even remotely related to this career field yet someone like myself and other veterans are automatically disqualified because we have not finished our college degree. I will say this and I can directly attest that most veterans, particularly combat veterans are the most highly trained, highly disciplined most capable and physically fit and not to mention the most honorable and dedicated people our great country has to offer. I think the great State of Texas needs to reconsider this injustice and accept military experience as a direct qualification to enter the Academy.

    Would a bachelors in criminal justice/law enforcement suffice for the education requirements to become a game and fish warden?

      Applicants must have successfully completed and have conferred a Bachelors level degree from an accredited college or university. There is no requirement as to what the degree is in.

      It depends on the state your applying to be a game warden. Some prefer science degrees like biology, environmental science or rangeland management. Some stares will accept criminal justice. I haven't heard of a state that didn't need some kind of degree to qualify.

      From what I've been reading it's recommended to get either criminal justice or a wildlife science bachelors degree.

      High school honestly doesnt matter. Just get the best grades you can! I would go for in college Natural Resources, Fish and Wildlife or Environmental Science! Good luck! Keep those grades up!
