What a wonderful place to get an education. Really if I could go back to college for the academics, friendships, campus, and more I would. If you look for it, you will find amazing friends, Christian growth, and awesome academics. I would recommend getting into a club or organization. Baylor is a great place if you let it be. Be kind, and enjoy the beautiful community there. Also, Waco is not that bad.

Love this school! They're really big on family values. I'm an out of state student and I thought I for sure would be homesick, but this place feels so much like home that I haven't been. The amount of support the teachers give you and how many resources they have to help you succeed academically is truly amazing.

I absolutely love Baylor and all of the amazing academic opportunities that it has to offer! Even if you are struggling in a certain class, the professors and staff are extremely willing to get the help that you need. There are so many outlets for academic help on campus that are very accommodating to every student's struggles and are so invested in ensuring their success. Baylor has been my dream school ever since I was little, and it has completely exceeded my expectations and beyond. I have enjoyed my short time here and cannot wait to see what the next four years has in store for me!

I really like the environment and the people! Everyone always made me feel safe and welcome to express my thoughts and opinions. The campus is absolutely beautiful! Only thing is that sometimes, when you pay so much money to go there, there are things that irritate you. For example, some of the professors didn’t seem to care much about teaching. They were very focused on just doing research; however, those professors were far and few between. Most of the professors really did care about helping their students.

The one thing that is so unique to Baylor is the community. No other schools I have ever visited have had this sense of community as Baylor does. During the COVID epidemic this year, we have had in-state students and parents rally to help out of state students get their cars from airports, and even help move kids out. The people are so kind, and there are so many ways to get involved on campus! I am a park of greek life, which is extremely unique at Baylor as we are a baptist university. Instead of greek life being focused on partying like at many state schools, at Baylor greek life is much smaller and more service-oriented as well as more focused on upholding Christian values.

Great school with challenging, yet rewarding academics. The people were very kind towards me and were quick to help others. The energy of everyone made me feel like I was at home already.
