Huston-Tillotson University to Establish Two Satellite Campus in California

Huston-Tillotson University, a historically Black educational institution in Austin, Texas, has announced plans to launch two new satellite campuses in California.

Currently, Huston-Tillotson University has been approved to offer online courses for California students beginning in January 2025. Upon receiving official accreditation approval from the required California agencies, the HBCU expects to open physical campuses in San Diego and Los Angeles in August 2025.

According to the HT-California webpage, “…numerous California residents have enrolled on [the] Austin, Texas campus and through dual credit and online programs. Through broader conversations and the desires of various educational entities in California, the university has entered collaborative agreements to establish a ‘boots on the ground’ experience for those who wish to enroll and be involved in the culture and climate of the HBCU experience.”
