Review of Houston Christian University

from Katy, TX

Describe your college in three sentences.

Houston Baptist University is the PERFECT place for anyone looking for more than just an education. Not only does this university concern itself with academic success, Houston Baptist University concerns itself with developing a whole person. Houston Baptist University nourishes academics, spirituality, and teaches you how to be a strong, independent, successful person in the real world.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Definitely be prepared to hit the ground running! Houston Baptist University is very active and has a lot in store for all of its students.

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

The classes are very demanding, yet if you stay focused and up to date, you should have no problem attaining that 4.0 you desire!

Describe the dorm life at your college.

Dorm life is GREAT. It is such an amazing opportunity to live on campus and to really get to experience the school for all it has to offer. Being on campus also encourages you to study and form new friendships and become more active on campus!

Describe the food and dining at your college.

I personally love the declining balance dollars that HBU gives with meal plans. You can use these for coffee, salad, chips, drinks, anything! They're the best part about the meal plans!

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

Campus organizations give you SO much to do. No matter what time or what day, there is always something fun going on!

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

HBU is one of the best universities you could choose to further your education and to develop you into a whole and amazing successful person.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

We have GREAT traditions. Definitely coming in as a freshman makes the experience even more fun! (But I can't disclose our traditions!)

Which types of students will excel at your college?

HBU is great for anyone. Don't think that if you aren't Baptist you can't come here. I have so many friends who range from being Muslim to Catholic and back. HBU is a great place for all students!

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

There are WAY too many organizations on campus to count! There's definitely something for everyone!

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

Greek life is definitely active at HBU! There are many different sororities and fraternities to choose from! Plus, rush week is fantastic!

How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?

We have gates all around campus which you either give your HBU ID number or key in a code to get in! Super safe and police officers are always on campus and their office is directly on campus!
