HOUSTON - The University of Houston has been selected as the site of the 2016 Republican presidential debate in Houston, hosted by NBC News and Telemundo, along with National Review, on Feb. 26, 2016.

Additional event details including debate location, campus programming, activities and logistics will be announced at a later date.

It's billed to be the last GOP debate before the March 1 "Super Tuesday" contests of Colorado, Massachusetts, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas, Vermont and Virginia.

The NBC/Telemundo debate, sanctioned by the Republican National Committee, was originally set to take place in Florida, but has been moved to Texas.

In addition to setting the date and location, NBC and Telemundo have announced that they're partnering in the debate with the conservative publication National Review.
