Texas Southern University. *sigh* I visited this school countless number times because my boyfriend and I are long distance. The faculty and students became family. It got to the point where people thought I went there for graduate school. Everyone you meet at this school takes PRIDE in being a Tiger. Texas Southern University is a public Historical Black College University (HBCU). According to their website, "The university was established in 1927 as the Houston Colored Junior College. It developed through its private college phase as the four-year Houston Colored College. On March 3, 1947, the state declared this to be the first state university in Houston; it was renamed Texas State University for Negroes. In 1951, the name changed to Texas Southern University. " Let's just say, HISTORIC. Every time I would come visit, the school was always painted with the smiles of maroon and grey. Students have the opportunity to advance in their education with a bachelors, masters, and in Law. Texas Southern University is a championship school. When I say that, I actually mean it. Their sports teams are well known in their SWAC Division for great reasons. This charming HBCU school is home to a diverse amount of students that love to participate to make their school a better place. From their student council to Greek life (Black greek orgs, band, music, and multicultural), to specialized clubs, Texas Southern University has a lot to offer. Note and advise to current students and future students: Get involved. Do internships. Next work as much as possible and cherish what your school has to offer!

Students here are trash. They litter the streets and act like idiots. This school is notorious for promoting poor behavior because (being the largest hbcu) the more students that they have, the more federal funding they receive. So discipline and attracting actual talent is not a priority. Just seats to fill with trash so the leaders of TSU ( who are constantly in the news with scandals, bribery, and extortion) can swindle even more parents and taxpayers

The woman in admissions was rude and unhelpful in regards to transferring over my information in order to attend college there. Wasted $50 sending transcripts and test scores just to receive no help …
