    Additionally, what are some pros and cons of the degree? Does UH have a good BA program? Thanks in advance.

    I don't know how well the BBA program ranks, but UH's MBA is pretty good and probably the best value for money in Houston.

    UH/Bauer is getting more and more selective and prestigious by virtue of the size of the applicant pool and large city location; but UT is the best, SMU and A&M's networks dwarf Houston's, and, while not having an undergrad business school, Rice Econ and Poli Sci majors will always get the best or, in a recession, only internships that are out there. You have to do very well at U of H and at least minor in either Accounting or MIS.

    If you're looking for an MBA you should explore Tulane and UT's Houston based programs.

    You can't beat UT or Rice if you are in Texas.

    But none of those majors are actually the simple B.B.A. degree which I believe he is referring to.

    UT (McCombs), then UH (Bauer). I think UH is a better value than A&M overall, especially with scholarships.

    Rice. They have everything you'll need there.

    Their campus is probably the best dog walking place in houston.

    imagine this campus [​IMG]

    with these dogs walking around. [​IMG]

    you're welcome :cool:

    All of your coursework will be in those topics and you can elect to specialize in one or the other. Furthermore, B.B.A. would be the degree everyone in the college gets, if not a BSBA.
