    Am learning a lot

    Texas Southern University is a fine institution, despite all the negative trash people say about it. Taking courses in chemistry, biology, and math at this college really made me see the important role that the classes played not only in science, but even in life. While, in high school I took interest in these courses, but never took notice to the roles they play in everyone's life. Everything is made of matter right? Matter boils down to chemistry. Everyone shares a similar genetic makeup and that boils down to biology. Each measured quantity, distance, and time boils down to math, right?
    Am enjoying being here

    Of course not, ahem excuse my sarcasm. I have really branched out when I began Texas Southern University I have met several members in the honors college. Also member in the organizations I am in. My main victory is taking on an executive position of the pre-health professions club. The only thing I would have negative to say is, at times my university feels like a party school; because when I am at home I was surrounded by people that were serious and did not overly indulged in this party craziness. I would not say that I do not have fun from time to time, but I will say that I am able to effectively divide the time for work and time for play.
    Bang for the buck

    Yes, yes, and yes Texas Southern University gives opportunities for many scholarships and room for financial aid, but this is also great but I really need money to save for pharmacy school; therefore, what they offer is fine and dandy but not enough to see my way through pharmacy school. They need to grant pre-pharmacy students with more scholarship opportunities because the scholarships for pre-pharmacy students are scarce, if they can improve this I would be extremely grateful.
    Tips for prospective students

    Being in college for over one semester has opened my eyes to a lot of things. When I was in high school, I dispelled many of the college myths, and I never envisioned college to be different from high school. I will advise prospective students to do the same, if I had a chance to go back in time and talk to myself as a high school senior I would advise myself to be careful of the people I surround myself with, become more involved in extracurricular activities, and to budget my money wisely. Firstly I will advise myself to be careful of the people I associate with to avoid negative influences. Moreover, I will also advise myself to be very involved in extracurricular activities as this will help increase my network and hone my leadership abilities. Finally, I will advise myself to budget and spend resourcefully because college expenses are constantly on the rise and it is only wise to spend intelligently and save for the rainy days to come. College has been a learning experience for me and I hope to continue to provide for my institution. It is not what the institution can do for you; it is about what you can do for your institution.
    Great for these types of students

    Texas Southern University does not make you; you make Texas Southern University to what you want it to be. My university is growing into a diverse community although it is a historically black college, but if you want to go to an institution that provides opportunities such as internships, scholarships, and study abroad TSU would be a great school for you. The College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences is by far the best college you could attend, I am not saying this because I am a pharmacy major. Maybe I am, but to get down to the main point Texas Southern University is where you want to be and that’s the honest truth.

    Tips for prospective students

    This is my second semester in college and being here has opened my eyes up to a lot of opportunites. Just being in college over all has really showed me a lot about not only myself but just the world itself. It has showed me a great number of things so far and I just have a whole new perspective on life itself now and even with the things and people around me. I really recommend that if you have the chance and opportunity to go to college, then go for it. Don't let that chance pass you by!

    Any type of student I think can go here to this college. You make the college; college doesnt make you!

    Am learning a lot

    I am definitely learning from the many professors I have in the chemistry department, and my mentor. I have already participated in a mini research project that opened my eyes to what research is. I've meant great professors who are guiding me into the world of science. Soon I feel like I will be able to take what I've learned and implement that into research to improve some area of human life.
    Am enjoying being here

    I am enjoying attending Texas Southern it has been a up and down roller coaster this semester, but it has only made me grow. There are plenty of parties to attend and the city of Houston is a great place in itself, and that made it even more enjoyable. I do appreciate the people I have meant and new friends that I've made that make the experience. The memories I've complied, and the late nights cramming; I look back and laugh. Texas Southern can be tons of fun, but I kept school the priority and parties last.
    Bang for the buck

    Texas Southern has its faults just like any school but I think it does have its bang for the buck. I think they do need more departmental scholarships for students who aren't incoming freshman. They do need to renovate their dorms, but besides that it is a good school. Texas Southern has that family feel to it so if looking or that then its the college for you.
    Tips for prospective students

    Students who are considering Texas Southern should visit first and make sure this is the school for them. If your looking for a small teacher to student ratio then this is a great place. The school does have a lot of parties and activities constantly going on so I would say you should be ready to manage your time wisely. Lastly, be ready to work hard, be aware of the people you associate with, and most importantly don't be afraid college is a great place!
    Great for these types of students

    Texas Southern is a great college for students who would like a smaller class size and more intimate relationship with professors. The campus is a relative size so its not too big or too small. The city of Houston has a lot to offer in it self, and of course the fun entertainment the school has to offer is immense. Texas Southern also holds great majors for those looking for particular majors that they maybe can't find at other schools.

    I love TSU the teachers are very helpful and they take things slow! I made it with ease and passed all my classes. The students in class can be a little annoying but that's in ANY class!!

    I LOVE TSU!!! I knew it was the school for me. I wanted to go to HBC and that is what TSU gave me! They provide a lot of activities and offer a lot of clubs to join.
    Bang for the buck

    You know its nice the residential living is way to high for the conditions they are in. For example, in my dorm the windows had damage, the restrooms were horrible and they received about $3000 dollars out of my money!

    JUST STAY FOCUSED! Get as much money possible.

    Will enjoy being here

    I have been living on campus for the past few weeks and I must say the best way to make sure you have fun is to find the people who share the same interests. For example , find someone who has the same major or career path; also find someone who has the extra curricular activities and club like sports, choir, etc in common with you.
    Bang for the buck

    The housing needs help. I paid the money to attend the Summer Academy but I paid $600 for the month and when I moved into my dorm I didnt have a key nor a desk. I recieved my key by default but they put in no extra effort to get me the key on the days they saiid they would. As for the desk I never got one- I had to move dorms for some other issues but if I wouldnt have moved I probably still wouldnt have a desk.

    Education wise, the teachers and counselors whom I have been in contact with have been great. Simple educated black people, not only that, but they know what their talking about. Any advise they give you, I strongly reccommend you take it.
    Tips for prospective students

    Be prepared. Be aware that its not about what you know but who you know- and to stay on teachers good sides because leaving a good impression on them can open up man doors; Doors you couldnt open on your own.
    Great for these types of students

    Great for those who want the education and to come out knowing they are going somewhere. But I have to admit its also great for party people, not only just on campus but the city of Houston has quite a few clubs and night life :)

    Did learn a lot

    I went to this school for about two years before i transferred. This school has really thought me about being responsible. Although all schools have their flaws. TSU is really a school with a difference. Starting from the faculty, the staff, and the student body; together they make your freshmen experience that of a wonder. I really enjoyed my stay at Texas Southern University
    Did enjoy being here

    Yes, i did enjoy being there. The games, the comedy shows, fashion shows, and other activities sure did show that all work and no play can dull college student. there was always something going on at Texas Southern University. I was more proud when we won the SWAC championship.
    Bang for the buck

    Just be prepared
    Tips for prospective students

    Get registered to the best teachers and on time. Be prepared always. Get enough scan-trons that you will need, because you might not like the lines for the other students who are trying to get scan-trons too.

    The University is not to big but not to small.
    The University staff will go out of there way to help you if you have a problem and are respectful.
    Tips for prospective students

    To get funding for this school you should stay on top of all required paper work for aid etc.
    If you really need something you must be humble no matter what because any signs of attitude or disrespect due to anger will put you at the back of the line.
    Academic Rigor

    The academic rigor depends on your effort but I like their curriculum.
    Dorm Life

    No. I plan to leave TSU in the Fall due to lack of communication in financial aid and academic advising offices.
    Bang for the buck

    I received scholarships from both the school and outside sources. Do not come alone to the registration process because they will give you the run around, if you come with a concerned and financially intelligent parent such as mine, they may give you discounts and waive certain fees that they wouldn't usually do.
    Tips for prospective students

    Be knowledgeable of where it is that you are attending and don't be persuaded by the many reviews you see that say This institution is great, come here Those may not always be true. IF you read more than 5 bad reviews, chances are, that school is not such a great institution and you may want to go with your second choice.

    TxSU is a great university! It is one of the few HBCUs that hold true to its tradition and legacy while providing a non-conventional, competitive education! Although I am a pharmacy/biology major, I'd have to say that TxSU is very aggressive across the board in all areas! From Sciences to Communications and back, TxSU can compete with any other university!

    Tips for prospective students

    Make sure to stick with your advisor when registering for classes, so you can stay on track. Don't get distracted by parties and events. Make sure to know what you want degree wise. If you don't know when you enter, just do general studies. This will give you at least a year and a half to decide and you'll have most of your general classes (which you will be doing anyway) completed.
    Academic Rigor

    The hardness of classes really depends on the teacher. Don't always believe what everyone says about a class. Sometimes when word spreads that a class is hard, it is usual from those that didn't put in the effort that was required to pass. But most classes will have some kind of extra credit to help in grades.
    Dorm Life

    Can't say yay or nay about dorm life, since I didn't stay on campus. I guess I'll give it an average rating.
    Food and Dining

    Can't judge the food. I didn't eat there. Most students tend to eat off campus. But I can say the faculty only food area is good, since I was invited there.
    What to do for fun

    I was mostly into my studies, but TSU does have many events going on through out the year. Just check the area in front of the student center, where everyone hang out.
    Bang for the buck

    Actually TSU is pretty good price wise, compared to other schools that charge a higher price for the same classes. If you work hard in your studies and make connections with faculty you'll learn way more than just by going to class.
    Great for these types of students

    Well, TSU is a 'party' school. So if you are one of those party people and know you are going to get distracted, don't go. But if you know what you want, then come because TSU faculty love to be personable with people who want knowledge.
    Greek Life

    Greek life is every where on campus. You can not miss it.
    Campus Safety

    TSU has bumped up security because it is an inner city school and the officers are in constant patrol. They will even escort you to and from your car.
