I am going to college because the career I am pursing is marketing or accounting. To do either I have to go to college so I can be more informed about this topic and be able to work in this profession. I chose UH because it is close to home and offers my major. I also chose it because of the cost. Compared to other colleges, the University of Houston isn't that bad. They also offer a lot of financial help. Overall, going to this college is the best option for me.

The college was founded in 1927 and started off as a junior college but in 1934 it was promoted to university status.

They don’t have many traditions and school spirt, but the official mascot is the cougar named Shasta. But they do have some traditions like:
Frontier Fiesta which is a festival that is student run and led.

It is a showcase to show the diverse talents of the student body.
