Students Say - Student Body
""There isn't really such a thing as a typical student at University of Houston," as "a diverse population is one of the university's prime strengths." That said, "Most students here are from Texas, especially from the Houston area, and are some form of ‘minority,' whether it be ethnically or socially." Also, UH "is known as a commuter community because many students are either older professionals or traditional students who live at home. Students of all types are welcome, and the campus is really very ethnically diverse." As one undergrad notes, "The only thing that is common to any random selection of students is that they are all quite friendly to people they do not even know and are open to conversation with strangers…. The community that is present in a school as large as this is hard to understand until you are really here and have random people offer to help you carry your books or find your way.""
