As a graduate of the Texas Southern University Jesse H. Jones School of Business and Honors College, I recommend this institution for all your higher education needs. Most of my professors and advisors were excellent, most of my learning facilities were modern and top notch, and Houston is such an amazing city with so much to explore off campus.
The cost of TSU has gone up tremendously so I highly recommend applying to as many scholarships as possible! If you're out of state, I recommend getting Texas residency first for cheaper tuition which is relatively easy to do (do your research). Also the cost of living near campus has gone up tremendously so I highly recommend finding a roommate who has a lot in common with you to help lower the cost ... Iiving alone can be costly. If you can't seem to find a roommate with a lot in common with you, just find a STEM major. STEM majors usually spend a lot of time doing school related stuff ... barely see or hear from them.

Texas Southern University… Great school! The experience at this university is truly positive. I love the people, the welcoming environment and the staff. The professors and professionals really care about the students well being and are supportive. The campus is lively, full of history for a great future. TSU has definitely taught me to appreciate heritage, which is a plus. HBCU is something I would recommend for everyone. Go Tigers!
