Why UHV
Your son or daughter can join an exclusive group of 200 students in fall 2010 and be a part of UHV’s first freshmen class.
UHV has a 30-year tradition of excellence offering high-quality education in junior-, senior-, and graduate-level classes. UHV offers affordability, safety and convenience, quality academic programs, and excellence.
Victoria Community
UHV is located in Victoria, a historic region that is rapidly adapting and evolving. The people are friendly, the weather is pleasant, crime is low, college jobs are plentiful and the cost of living is inexpensive.
Victoria offers live local sports; water recreation at lakes, rivers and nearby beaches; great local restaurants; and a healthy dose of small-town hospitality.
Plus, its location makes day trips easy to Austin, San Antonio, Houston, Corpus Christi or the coastal beaches in Rockport and Port Lavaca.
Student Jobs
Career Services manages the Student Employment Center – a centralized location where UHV students can search for both on- and off-campus jobs. Students have the opportunity to work on campus while pursuing their education in jobs that are meaningful and offer unique networking opportunities. Off-campus employment opportunities are varied and are actively supported by the community.
