UH is a pretty decent school.

Academics are pretty decent. I have had some quite challenging professors where they graded pretty hard but there is a TON of help available. I met with my English professor quite a few times and she told me what I needed on my major papers. I struggle pretty severely with math and the CASA center is quite excellent with their tutors, they know what they are doing for sure even though they don't speak english too well. Overall I felt that I did learn a lot this semester meanwhile I got all A's.

Parking was not an issue for me at all because I paid for the welcome center garage which guarantees me a spot.

The only problem I have with the UNI is the quality of the student body. It is very very diverse which is an awesome thing, but a lot of people are very unmotivated to succeed. Drug use is extremely rampant in the dorms. I've seen my friend go from very happy to start and do well in college, to failing most of her classes because she was getting fucked up every other night in the dorms. I honestly don't mind weed at all because I smoke it as well, but there's a ton of cocaine, pills, and even crack use on campus which is really really bad.

Because of that, I really want to get out and go to a more highly regarded school where students take academics as a high priority.
