[edit] University of Houston System
The University of Houston System has four separate and distinct institutions. Each institution is a stand-alone university and confers its own degrees. Its flagship institution is the University of Houston, a nationally recognized top-tier research university.[1][2][3][4] The three other institutions are stand-alone universities; they are not branch campuses of the University of Houston.
Admissions into each institution of the University of Houston System is separate, and each institution in the System has distinct admission criteria and requirements.
