Ask your high school registrar to send your transcript (electronically or in a sealed envelope) to UH. Fax and photocopies are not accepted.
Send updated official transcripts from all colleges and institutions previously attended. Electronic transcripts are strongly encouraged.
Send official SAT or ACT scores directly to UH from the testing agency. Scores can also be sent through The College Board (code 6870) or ACT (code 4236). Official test scores must have been taken within the last five years.
Students transferring to UH with college credits earned while in high school and those with less than 15 earned post high school graduation need to submit official SAT or ACT scores along with an official copy of their final high school transcript.
The University of Houston has some majors that have additional admission criteria. For more details on what’s needed for those majors, visit uh.edu/impactedmajors.
