Perhaps my favorite thing about Baylor is the opportunity I have had as an honor student to have the interdisciplinary major called University Scholars. If you have high enough SAT's and enough AP classes and a good application essay, you can be excused from most undergrad required classes such as required English and Science classes. This means even as a Freshman you can begin your major classes. It also makes it easier to spend a semester doing an internship or to have multiple concentrations instead of a single major. That's not to mention that Baylor has small classes with involved teachers....

    Baylor is an amazing school with a great well-rounded perspective. The school is the perfect size, it has about 14,000 students overall. At Baylor there is a tight-knitt community feel that makes everyone feel at home.

    Baylor is an excellent school for any student looking for a diverse environment and rigorous academics. They respect and care for students throughout their college journey, and most importantly give them the skills for the next stage in their lives. Baylor is also a great school for those looking for a spiritual environment, but is welcoming to all types of faiths and backgrounds.

    So far Baylor has been wonderful for me. There are a lot of ups and downs in college, but they would be best experienced here because of all the friendly people surrounding you. The Baylor family is terrific-Sic 'Em Bears!

    I can't imagine having gone to any other school. There are not many universities where faith and education are such an integral part of the curriculum. And it is well known in athletics with great school spirit.

    I am so excited to be attending Baylor in the fall. The complexity and whole family feel of the campus and major halls make it feel like a home. I can't wait to take such a great opportunity as going to BU!!

    Baylor, by far, has one of the most beautiful campuses in the south. The campus, is small but maintains the larger university feel, the same amenities but class sizes that make personal relationships a must. The school, the people, the professors, and the academics make Baylor a wonderful place to be.
