Hello! I am seriously thinking about Baylor University. The academics are excellent and they have the perfect program for my major. However I’m trying to look at the school as a whole and there isn’t much information online about the social or party scenes at Baylor…does anyone have any information? Are there parties? I just want to make sure I love all aspects of the school. Partying obviously isn’t everything in college but I think it’s definitely something to consider before committing. Thanks!
I have a few friends at Baylor and according to them, the party/social scene is s**t. Several of them are a little odd so they don’t mind that many of their friday/saturday nights will consist of sober board games and smash bros. tournaments.
Looking through my friends’ photo albums, it seems the more social ones tend to drive all the way to Austin during the weekends
Have you ever been to Waco?
You absolutely should before you apply or commit.
thanks for your response! do you know if they are part of greek life? because i am planning on joining a sorority and wondering if that changes the social scene a bit?
i haven’t been to waco yet, but I’m going this weekend 
If you want to be in a sorority you will be fine and Baylor is the perfect place for you. I think the social scene is more of a problem if the sorority/party life is not your scene.
I’m at SMU in dallas I feel bad for people in Waco, but if you are doing nursing you only have to be there for a few years then you go to school at baylor nursing in dallas. Its a big step up.
I’m doing education so I’ll be in Waco the whole time. Thank you though!
@kac17 What did you end up deciding to do?
