Does the Carnegie classification mean that UH has now completed its task of becoming a Tier One university?
The Carnegie recognition is very encouraging and validates the considerable efforts and commitment of UH and its supporters. Continuing hard work will be required to maintain that distinction. However, Tier One status is not an end in itself. UH is still committed to broadening our overall excellence and, in particular, strengthening our performance and reputation for student success. We are continuing our efforts along those lines and hope to enjoy results as admirable as the Carnegie distinction at some point.
