Visiting Students

First Time in College

Not sure where you want to attend college? Giving the University of Houston a try as a visiting (transient) student can allow you to get ahead on earning credits toward a UH degree, should you choose to enroll permanently.


Attending Another University?

Have you chosen another college? Thinking about transferring to UH? No problem. You can still earn credit hours with our summer classes. A visiting (transient) student can take undergraduate summer courses and apply the credits earned toward a degree at UH or another institution. Visiting student status is also ideal if you have already completed a bachelor’s degree and need pre-requisite courses for an advanced level degree.
