Admissions Overview

University of Houston-Clear Lake is less selective with a 69% acceptance rate. This means most students who apply get in, making it accessible for those seeking upper-level education opportunities. The middle 50% of students score between 990-1173 on the SAT, with an average of 1082. Since this is an upper-level university primarily serving junior and senior transfer students, traditional freshman admission requirements matter less than your community college performance. The school seeks motivated working adults and transfer students who want to complete their bachelor's degrees while balancing careers and family responsibilities, particularly those interested in fields connected to the nearby aerospace industry.
