When I went there for undergrad and master's, half the population seemed it was from foreign countries. What gives?

If you are talking about the University of Texas, you've noticed the diverse student body. Texas has one of the most diverse populations in the US, so many of the students you see may not be "foreign," but rather American citizens with different ethnicities. Furthermore, UT is one of the most respected public universities in the United States, so many foreign students will apply there because it costs less than private institutions.

It is just you.
Only 4% of the undergraduates at University of Texas are international students. 17% are Hispanic and 17% are of Asian background -- but that doesn't make them foreign.
It is probably higher for graduate students.
If you mean Tennessee -- the numbers are even lower. Only 1% is International. 2% are Hispanic and 3% are Asian

Probably not just you. I'm at the University of Iowa and we seem to have a huge Japanese student population.
