    Am learning a lot

    The professors here are very nice and helpful to all their students. They try to work with the students as much as possible to get them on the right track and to succeed in class.
    Am enjoying being here

    I am enjoying being here because of the simple fact that I am getting the college experience I've always wanted. I wanted to leave home, not because I hated home, but because I wanted to see what it was all about. And they have brand-new dorms!
    Bang for the buck

    The University of Houston-Victoria is not at all expensive as other universities. You get the college experience you're searching for and you don't break the bank!
    Tips for prospective students

    You should:
    -Apply for financial aid and admission early.
    -Take a tour of the school.
    -Talk to the professors.
    -Check for your major.
    Great for these types of students

    This school is great for:
    -Students wanting the college experience for not that much money.
    -Students looking for a small college for more one-on-one teaching.

    Will learn a lot

    They have several majors in my interest area. Like the idea that there is more face-to-face interaction with the professors.
    Will enjoy being here

    Everyone was very welcoming on my campus visit. The tour was very helpful and sealed the deal with my wanting to attend there. Jaguar Hall is a converted hotel and has a lot of services & activities.
    Bang for the buck

    They have several scholarship programs and is basically the least expensive public university in Texas.
    Great for these types of students

    Students who like a smaller school environment with a smaller student to teacher ratio.

    As with any university, you have good professors and those who are less than stellar. My classes are all online and sometimes the selection of online classes is limited. However, UHV is generally a really good school.
    Tips for prospective students

    Start your financial aid process early. If you wait too long, it can go past the payment deadline date and then you will have to take out a loan to pay for your classes until the financial aid comes through.
    Academic Rigor

    Depending on the professor, classes can be somewhat daunting or rather easy. Because I take online classes, there really isn't a choice in which professor I get for a certain class.
    Bang for the buck

    For the tuition cost, UHV is a great choice.

    UHV is inexpensive, has great programs, and has very flexible programs that are offered in Katy, Victoria, Cinco Ranch and Online.
    Tips for prospective students

    Try to attend some face-to-face and some online classes as well. If you are in a satellite campus, try to get some organizations going.
    Academic Rigor

    UHV has a lot of great teachers who will help you out every step of the way.
    Dorm Life

    They recently built dorms and welcome the first batch of freshmen in Victoria.
    What to do for fun

    Soccer team, SGA, and other events hosted by UHV, UH, or WCJC.
    Bang for the buck

    It doesn't get more affordable.
