Not so bright
I was estatic to transfer to this university from another major universit, however, I quickly lost this feeling once I actually unmasked the university.

Background info
1) transfered with a 3.6
2) biology major
3) have attended the university for almoost one semester
4) lived on campus for a bit however changed to offcampus after realizing how much I hated the university

Problems I had at the university
1) Terrible vibe (no social scence)
2) terrible food
3) Professors dont teach and classes are either really easy or extremly hard for no reason
4) students are mannerless
5) poor administration (unhelpful incompetent and rude)
6) campus is EXTREMLEY unsafe after daytime
7) school is money greedy
8) Poor bus transpotation ( U of H cut many bus routes and busses take 20 minutes to come and are super pack)

9) 20 percent of the school is asian (I dont care about the race) but stick to thier own race
10) campus needs huge innovation everything looks old
11) too much construction surrounding the school
12) terrible parking takes me an hour to park anywhere
13) advisers have no ideal what they are doing
14) U of H grades on a wierd grading scale and if you repeat a course it will not replace original grade

Comparing other large universities, UH buildings are very old, and building appearances aren't very good, there are constructions going on, so alot of the roads are closed, and very noisy. Don't go there if you want to live like at home, because its an ugly campus... However, it is very easy to get internships to big companies, especially for engineering majors. One quick advice, if you have 3.5+GPA, dont come to UH, not worth it, try schools like UT or A&M, where the campus have a much better view

Do not come to this school. This is a school full of ghetto people, and foreigners. The school is ranked very low and is a low-quality education. The school is ugly, no one lives on campus, there's no "college experience" here. As far as classes go, it's just busy work constantly.
