Here's some genuine advice: UH is primarily a commuter school, which means there is no where near the school spirit as your typical state University. On the plus side, the science/engineering/math programs are at an excellent value. Many professors come from top 10 Universities, are involved in novel research and are pretty good lecturers. On the not so plus side, some of the facilities are a little dated, but the University is working to get itself up to date. Other worthy departments: Hotel & Resturaunt Mgmt, Architecture, Creative writing, business school (MBA only) and music performance. The school of Music molds some really impressive musicians!! Safety: This is a real concern at UH. Cars get vandalized from time to time and there are reports of robbery/assault. There's not too much UH can do about this, since its located in the 3rd ward. What you can do is be aware of your surroundings and follow general safety advice. Housing: Your best bet is to look off campus. Entertainment: Houston has diverse cultural influences. Find your interest and get at it.
