University of Houston Sugar Land

I think this campus is a great addition to the University of Houston System. You have several people who live far away commuting to the main campus and that can be quite the drive for some. With several different campus locations dispersed around Houston, it makes commuting easier. I know I’ve skipped class plenty of times at Main Campus due to oversleeping, traffic accidents happening and just thinking «Campus is just too far to make the drive out there now and then I have to drive around to look for parking and that’s an additional half hour. I’m going to be late for class anyway so I might as well stay home». It just starts to snowball.
This campus is super clean and safe. I don’t have to worry about leaving class at 8 PM and be paranoid about constantly checking over my shoulders to make sure I am not about to get mugged. The parking is FREE which is awesome and there are plenty of parking spaces, which is a huge issue at the Main Campus but not at this one.
There’s no food court or cafeteria but there are snacks in the bookstores and vending machines in the buildings. Luckily for you, Sugar Land Town Square is about one or two exits down and you have a wide variety of restaurants and places to eat. I love exploring all up and down highway 6, First Colony and Town Square to see what there is to eat and just driving around before my classes.
You don’t get the real college life feel here. It’s more of a community college. Campus is dead, quiet, and just boring. You come here to go to class, get your work done and leave. You don’t come here to make friends and hang out like Main Campus. The staff is friendly and helpful and there are only three buildings so you can’t really get lost. The campus itself is super easy to find right off I-​69/​US-​59 S and University Boulevard as opposed to Main Campus where you can exit Scott, Calhoun or Texas Spur 5 and still get pretty lost navigating around the campus.
They now have shuttles running from Main Campus to Sugar Land Campus and vice versa throughout the day. Sadly, the last shuttle going back to Main Campus leaves at 7:10 PM so if you have classes pass that time then you’re just out of luck getting back to Main Campus.
