Is the stereotype of students at Baylor University accurate?

Andrea

Fairly.

Paige

Because of the cost of coming to Baylor, I'm sure that this is somewhat true, but I personally have to work very hard to be here. I know a lot of people who are here on scholarships and work very hard to be able to come to Baylor! Not everyone who goes to this school can afford it!

Dylan

Not at all, people here are just regular broke college kids for the most part.

Alex

partially

Rachel

A lot of us are here on scholarship and ethnicities vary. The private, Christian university does seem to have a calling to "MRS degrees" and the term "Baylor girl" is used to define the vast majority of the female student body in a negative connotation in refrence to their dress, attitude, and acessories. And while most classes are quite difficult, we're actually good at most sports besides football.

baylor students are smart but come from diffrent backgrounds. So far everyone i have encountered at the university is very nice and will help you with anything even if they just met you.

Lindsay

To a certain extent, yes. But not completely.

Alex

No these stereotypes are not true. There are, however, rich and snobby students on almost every college campus including Baylor. Baylor is a private school so we take a lot of hits about things like this.

Jeff

only partially; just a portian of Baylor students fit this stereotype

Jeff

These stereotype is not entirely accurate. I mean there are some rich, stuck-up students, but ever college has a few of those. There are also students that come from wealthy backgrounds, but they did not act stuck-up, they like to kick back and hang out.
