Student Reviews

Small school, big experience!

Anonymous rated 4 out of 5 stars

The geology program at Sam Houston is smaller giving you more one on one attention. I received an A at field camp and overall feel like I really gained a lot from our program. I have had chances to travel all over the United States and even to Spain with our program. We have great professors that I learned form and have great respect for.
