What do you consider the worst thing about Baylor University? Why?

Jessica

How expensive it is, because sometimes it feels that it costs more than it is worth.

Claire

Baylor's greatest downfall lies in its attempts to sharply restrict students' activities and instill a rigid sense of morality in an increasingly diverse student population. While it is respectable that an institution so old has maintained it's Baptist roots, the concept of enforcing such heritage on students from varying religious backgrounds stands to explain the nearly twenty percent of undergraduate students who do not return for a third semester.

I'd say that it is probably that amount of financial aid given. My school is very expensive and every year the tuition seems to increase. This puts a strain in all the students' pockets.

Cynthia

The worst thing about my school is that it is very expensive.

ashley

The worse thing about Baylor University is how they push and force Christianity on everybody. If you have a different thought on Christianity, they will work their hardest so that you have the same mindset about God that they do. It is an extrememly Christian school.

Kristina

The price of education, because it turns away students that would be really good for the school and for the students that are here it makes it hard for them to keep going because there are not enough financial aid opportunities

Sara

It seems hard to get to know other people without joining a fraternity or sorority.

Richard

The financial aide department is very lacking in communication when it comes to lettng students know there are problems with their aid files.

I love my university and my campus. It is very historical and the campus is beautiful. I would say though that the worst thing about my school is the town where my university sits. Our students volunteer many hours to help the town of Waco, but it is not a thriving and safe town. It is not what I would consider a "college town". It is located half way between two large cities, but it is not an easy and affordable city to fly in or out of for the cost-conscious student.
