  1. Hi HSB, You seem to be promoting UT Tyler a lot. Are you getting any commission for enrolling students to this university? Just got this doubt.

    • UT Tyler is a sponsor at HSB. I don’t get commission like agents. It’s just like ads you see in the newspaper. If students think that school is good for them, then they can apply.
