Failed course before graduation

I’m currently enrolled at TSU, and I unfortunately most likely failed a course and I’m due to graduate in December. Will I still be able to walk at graduation? My parents already sent out the invitations to my graduation. I know I will have to return to TSU for the credit, I just want to able to walk so my parents won’t kill me.

Failed class before graduation

Hey I go to TSU. By the title I manage to goof up pretty bad. I suppose to graduate this December, and I’m most likely going to fail the course. I was wondering would it still be possible to walk for graduation, because my parents already sent out the invites for graduation.

Looking for someone to take over lease at Haven

Hey everyone! I'm trying to take a gap semester next spring, so I’m looking for someone (female only) to take over my lease at Haven at Elgin. Contrary to the google reviews, I haven’t had any problems here and really lucked out with my roommates.

Some info:

The lease would start in January and end in July. Rent starts at $930 a month, but along with other fees, it’s closer to $980. I have 3 other roommates in a 5 bed 5 bath apartment. My roommates are all in the medical field, so they’re typically gone all day. They’re really sweet and we all like to keep the common areas clean if cleanliness is something you’re worried about. My room is the farthest down the hall, which I find gives me more privacy than the other rooms that are door to door. If you want to enter the building past open hours, you’d have to either use you key fob or the Stratis app they’ll provide you with to enter the doors, so I haven’t felt unsafe. I know parking is a concern around campus, but none of my roommates have had any break ins or any issues of that sort. I don’t drive, so I’ll take the rail down the street or the buses. The purple line will take you straight to campus! There's also a really nice gym, yoga room, and pool!

Let me know if yall have any questions if interested! Thanks so much!

Anyone seeking an off campus roommate ?

Hey I’m Tj, I’m seeking a cool, tidy and cost friendly room off campus. I’m an honor student at TSU , I’m really chilled, non judgmental and I keep a low profile. I have a budget of ($500) month and I cook really well. If I sound like a good match let me know.

Post Bacc 2025 question

As you can see above I am interested in TSU but have heard bad things about it. I am about to graduate at a University in Florida but am wanted to move to Houston for my gap year. Im stuck between University of Houston and Texas Southern. Ive heard University of Houston is much better academically, but i also want to experience the HBCU life. I will be out of state so the price for both schools from what their website is telling me is about the same. Could you tell me which school would be better for a gap year? What are the pro's and con's of TSU and what are the pro's and con's of UHouston?

Apartment Open at Cullen Oaks

Hey guys! I am currently looking for someone to take over my lease as I am moving out because I want to move closer to my job.

I live in a 2Bed 2Bath Grad fully furnished unit (no this doesn’t mean you have to be a graduate student lol). Rent is $1349 including utilities!

The apartment comes with a couch, dining room table, 3 tables in the living room, and in the room, it comes with a dresser, study desk, and a twin xl bed and mattress.

I live in room B. Unlike room A, room B has the bathroom connected to the room and is much bigger!

The Grad means that the washer and dryer is included in the apartment itself. Additionally, there are only 6 Grad Units in the entire apartment complex, so it’s a steal!

I live with one girl and she’s super sweet and chill! She is usually out majority of the day at work or school, so the place is pretty quiet; if you like having your own space, this is perfect!

Cullen Oaks has a small gym alongside a study center that has a colored printer; you just need to bring your own paper!

Cullen Oaks houses students for both TSU and UH!

Girls only!

Please dm me for more details :)

TSU vs Rice Football Game

So...what kind of happened with the TSU & Rice football game? That was kind of hard to watch and a couple of the alumni were kind of losing it on Facebook. It was like watching a completely different team out there. Not trying to kick them while they're down but hopefully they can fix whatever the problem was.

Student Refunds

TLDR: When do we receive student refunds?

Hey y’all. I’m planning to use my refund to pay for off campus housing, and rent will be due the day of move-in. On the TSU website it says that refunds begin processing on the first day of school. I’m a transfer student, so I’m unsure of how long that takes. When after the first day of class have you received your refund? I’m looking for an estimate time so I can plan a move-in date. Thank you!

Anyone else not able to login to student portal?

Hello!

My son is a first year student and has yet to be able to log in to the student portal to register for classes and etc.

When he tries to log in it says he has not been admitted. But he has and has even been given a student number and email…

We have been trying to get this resolved for over a month and been getting the run around. Apparently it’s a tech issue that no one there can fix.

This is really unprofessional and disappointing. School starts soon and we are really worried now.

If anyone has any tips or has experienced this before please let us know. Thanks in advance!
