Services
Housing services
Living on-campus at Baylor, students will experience a supportive Christian environment with people and services in place to help them achieve personal growth and academic success.
First-year students are required to live on-campus for their first two semesters in one of three community options for first-year students: First-Year Communities, Living-Learning Centers, and Residential Colleges. Many students choose to continue their on-campus experience by living in an Upper-Division Community or renewing their membership in a Living-Learning Center or Residential College.

Despite the multiple budgetary organizations, the various departments function as one team.

Student Life
Campus life
We cultivate a rich campus life that will help you grow intellectually, spiritually and emotionally. Whether you're enjoying Diadeloso (our campus-wide "Day of the Bear" celebration).
The Baylor campus is a beautiful place to be. But it's also a first-rate learning environment with excellent academic resources. From the East Village Complex, including Teal Residential College and Earle Hall, to our magnificent historic buildings, each space has been designed with students in mind.
In addition, Baylor's innovative Living-Learning Centers blend residence hall life with classrooms and faculty offices to create a place where students can collaborate with each other and with faculty on a daily basis.
