<p>Well if just the title of “tier” is bothering you U of H is now officially a tier one school…i know a lot of intelligent people going/will be going to U of H but all of them are going into the Honors college. If you truly like UH over UT then just go but make sure you do the honors college because if u don’t it could very much be like 13th grade.</p>
<p>UH is though a commuter school so the school culture will be much more subdued than say UT. Although you may love Houston, keep in mind the stark difference in campus life between these campuses and where you would be most happy.</p>
