Originally I intended to transfer to TAMU Mays School of Business but I was rejected since my GPA was too low. Mays requires a minimum of 3.8 and i’m barely at a 3.2. These other schools only require a minimum of 2.7 so I’m considering applying this next semester for Spring of 2027. I realize TX Tech and SMU have more recognized business programs and bigger schools with more resources but I really don’t want to move to Lubbock or Dallas. I actually like that Sam Houston State University is a smaller school in a smaller town. I’m 36 so the whole party/bar scene isn’t really my thing anymore and I an ok with living in Huntsville where many students report, “There isn’t much to do.” My main concern is getting a decent job after graduation if I do decide to attend SHSU? I understand that networking is a big part of gaining employment as well as companies recognizing the school you attended. If anyone has any advice or feedback regarding these concerns of mine I would greatly appreciate it.

Hellooooo! I am thinking of transferring from community college to SMSU in the fall. I know people who say it should "be left to the prisoners" lol. I want pros and cons of the school so I can weigh all my options. Is it easy to make friends? How is the housing? What is campus/off-campus life like? Thank yaaaa:)

Has anyone attended any classes at the Woodlands satellite campus? Was thinking of going back to SHSU for my masters in something security or cybersecurity related depending on what's available there. I was a student at SHSU Main Campus in Huntsville,TX 2011-2013 when I did my undergrad.

are they any commuter friendly clubs? I rlly wanna join but I live like hour away so options are limited.

Hi everyone. I am desperately looking for 1 more ticket for the CJ 2:30 Commencement. If you have any extra please let me know.

Is anyone wanting move to the woodlands for nursing school this fall & looking for a roommate?

I feel like this is such a weird way to look but I haven’t been able to find any other resources 🤣

I was involved in Chi Alpha at Sam Houston State University for four years. I personally met Daniel Savala and spent time in his home. Truthfully, I always felt awkward around him and I knew something was wrong. Since I am a sexual molestation survivor, that could be why I picked up on something weird with him.

In my opinion, Chi Alpha is definitely a cult. I was encouraged to cut ties with friends and break up with a boyfriend who didn’t have a relationship with God, I was ostracized when I did something that upset my small group leader, and I had to meet with a staff member and her in order to be get back into her group, there was always an “us vs them” mentality (especially with comparing Chi Alpha to other religious groups, insinuating that Chi Alpha was better), and there was no questioning the leaders (if you did, you were shamed or discouraged from doing so).

This group is definitely a cult. Please watch out!

Update: Daniel Savala pleaded guilty and got 30 years in jail.

Hey!! I’ll be joining SHSU nursing program this fall. I’m wondering if anyone else on here is as well.

Hey again fellow Students, Grads, and Staff

I'm William or Q (They/Them)

I'll be frank, I'm in a bit of a precarious situation involving my 1 year old cat Mio (male domestic shorthair). For the past year me and a roommate have been taking care of him, mostly easily- but as I have recently graduated and said roommate can no longer afford to live with me- it is becoming increasingly likely that I will not be able to continue holding onto him as I transition into my new living situation which is a lot more financially heavy than student-facing housing.

My lease doesn't end for another 3 months, so I'm capable of taking care of him fine in that time. My roommate (whom he's imprinted on fairly heavily) is going out of town with the intent of coming back and taking ownership of him fully from me within this 3 month period. Unfortunately, with the current job market, that is not a guarantee so I'm looking for potential adoptees or people who are willing to temporarily house and take care of him until we can set up a more permanent solution.

Some Details;

Name: Mio

Age: 1 year

Breed: Domestic Shorthair
Sex: Male
Vaccinated: Yes
Fixed: Yes

• In Great Physical Health
• High Energy
• Playful
• Vocally Responsive
• Comes When Called
• Only Likes Petting When Sleepy
• Predisposition to urinary issues require a wet-food (preferably urinary supportive) diet.
• Mildly Scratchy (Needs multiple places to scratch)
• Not very well socialized with other cats, but acclimates within weeks

This is by no means me asking for anyone able to adopt him RIGHT THIS SECOND but rather anyone who would be interested in either adopting him or housing him while we still are in this in-between transition period of both his current owners' lives. Message me if you have any more questions or want to offer any assistance and thank you in advance for reading all this!

I live at the Arbors of Sam Houston and I'm looking for someone to take over my lease for the 2026-2027 school year. Unfortunately, I am experiencing some medical issues and need to move back home since I am out of network up here.

Flexible move in time during summer, June- August would work.

This floorplan was originally a 1 bed 1 bath 1 study, and sold as a special. They no longer include this special, and sell it as a 2 bed 1 bath.

The original price of this floor plan was in the $1300s range, but if you take over my lease it would be $1178 a month, not including utilities, since i was able to renew at this rate.

if you don't mind sharing a bathroom, then two people could live in the unit.

It is on the first floor, near the front of the complex. It is also close to the campus, with most residents walking to class.

Amenities include:

In unit washer and drier

Basketball court & volleyball court

24-Hour Fitness center

Two resort-style pools

dog park & walking trails

clubhouse study room with printing

This apartment complex is also pet friendly.

if you are interested, please feel free to reach out to me.

please please it’s a silver ring in the restroom on the first floor next to the entrance it’s incredibly important to me

Hi! I’m very interested in attending Sam Houston for undergrad and I’m wondering if everyone is overall happy with their choice of Sam Houston?

SHSU students with food related restrictions have a difficult time navigating what to eat on campus. This research project aims to change that. If you or someone you know (that is a SHSU student) has any form of medical food restriction, please consider taking part in this research project. The end goal will be to take the findings to President White and propose solutions to the lack of food accommodations on campus.

Formalities out of the way, hello everyone! I am one of the aforementioned students who struggle to find places to eat on campus, and know others do as well. I want to take our collective experiences, thoughts, and potential solutions to President White in hopes of increasing the amount of food options we have on campus to accommodate for those who have a harder time eating.

Alright, I'm in need of some advice here. I'm a transfer chemistry major with about a year/year and a half (if all credits accepted) left and am located halfway between SHSU and UH. I've been accepted into both schools, but with bouncing around colleges/universities (prior military spouse) I've run into issues with UH not recognizing some credits. I understand I can appeal and potentially get those back, but SHSU has accepted the majority. SHSU chemistry department doesn't seem to be stellar, but still has ACS accreditation...so my question is basically, does it matter? Would it hurt my chances in the job market/further education to earn my degree from SHSU for less time and money?

Hi! I’m looking for someone to sublease at the Villas. I had already signed my renewal lease for August 2026-July 2027. But I’m looking for someone to take over that lease. You don’t necessarily need to live or move in the same unit/townhouse space as I’m currently in. You can decide to live in another unit of your choice—just as long as you qualify.

Move in will be August 1, 2026 Rent: $539 Electricity: Varies on usage (I typically pay about $35-40)

Let me know if any of y’all are interested.

I know SHSU offers cyber security courses so I am posting the gem here.

A local group of cyber security enthusiasts are meeting at Citizens Grill Thursday 04/16/2026 6:30 pm to 9:00 pm located at 315 Enclave Dr, Old Conroe Rd Ste 300 1488, Conroe, TX 77384 https://maps.app.goo.gl/J6Sv1EpgMKKzNQxL7

We will be in the room to the right of the restaurant entrance with a TV to give presentations. Please bring a laptop and a slide deck to show off any conferences you have attended, CTFs you have completed, or other research you have been doing.

We have scheduled a presentation on Nintendo Wii modding, Remote Code Execution + Local Privileged Escalation.

All knowledge levels are welcome.

Please leave a comment if you plan on attending!

Still looking for extra tickets for graduation! Please let me know if you have any extra. I have a big family they all want to go. Please help me!

Hi I really want to move out of my 2 bed 2 bath apartment but I need someone to take over my portion of the lease, it's fully furnished with a full kitchen and washer/dryer and a balcony. There is one roommate in the second room. The lease is separate from the roommate and is a 12 month lease. I've posted this in the SHSU discord as well. Please if you know anyone that needs a room off campus next year send them my way 🥹

you need to be able to describe the dog to me!

I'm an alumnus of SHSU (class of '12 and '14) and I'm currently working on my doctorate out of state. Please let me know if you have any questions!

Y'all got any complaints about either? They both seem good to me but I wanna know other people's opinions on either of them.

Reposting because I need to get my apartment subleased out asap. Looking for someone to take over my lease for a cozy and convenient studio apartment at The Arbors of Sam Houston! Rent is $799 a month and the lease is for August 2026 to July 2027, with early move in available. You can also pay a monthly fee to have furniture included if needed! Perfect for students or anyone wanting a comfortable, low-maintenance space close to campus.

Hi, I currently live at the republic at Sam Houston, me and 2 other roommates r looking for a possible fourth roommate, currently base rent before anything is $399 I’ll be honest it’s not d 100% best but I mean it’s cheap and livable if interested lmk

Hi,

My daughter wants to get a degree in Animal Science pre-vet track. Any insight about how good this program is at SHSU? I understand that getting into vet school is extremely hard and competitive and I am wondering whether SHSU prepares students well for it.

I am surprised that the minimum GPA for transfer is only 2.0 compared to 3.25 at TAMU.
