Baylor University Top Questions

What I wish I had known before I came to Baylor would have to be how involved I would get with the Theatre. I every day, most of the day at the Theatre Building, working on various things for the mainstages. Thankfully, I love theatre and Baylor has an amazing program, so I spending my time doing something I love.

How hard classes were and how boring some of them were such as Religion and chapel

I wish that I had known how different core classes are from basic classes. I had no idea that I would have to study so differently for each class.

I wish that I had realized how truly religious it was. I found it hard to relate to others because I am not very religious. Had I known this I probably wouldn't have chosen to go here. Don't get me wrong it is a WONDERFUL school, but I find it hard to make friends.

I wish I had a better understanding of what I wanted to study so that I wouldnt have wasted my time switching majors

I wish I would have known how much fun I was going to have. All parents and teachers from high school talk about is how hard you have to work in college. About how much homework there will be. About studying twice as much. They never mention the awesome memories and amazing friends that you will make. In the end, of course, you will be doing all the things mentioned above, but it is definitely worth it when the work and studying comes along with fun times and exciting events.

I wish I had known about the mandatory chapel. I wish I had known about the conservative environment.

I wish I could have been more aware of my financial situation. This is difficult for me because I am the one responsible for finding out how to pay for my college education. My parents are not able to aid me financially so I must rely on scholarships, financial aid, and numerous amounts of loans.

I wish I had known what professors were like. I also wishi I knoew aforeign language so that I wouldn't have to take so many foreign language classes.

Financial Aid is not as easy to get as I though.
