Baker is perfect for someone looking for a small, close-knit school with lots of opportunities. Despite its size, Baker has connections with many businesses and companies in the Kansas City area and makes those available to students. Professors are very approachable and know you by name. Baker has become my home.
I love Baker and would not be the person I am today without the curriculum, faculty, athletics, and opportunities presented. I have grown as a student but most important an individual. I believe that I can accomplish so much in this world because of Baker. Not only this, but it feels like a home and family on and off campus. The environment is incredibly friendly and even those you do not know will give you a smile, wave, or say hi when passing by on the way to class. I have gotten to know my professors on a personal level and it has helped me to open up to them and classmates in order to excel.
I really like going to Baker. The class sizes are nice and small and the teachers are always available to help. I also like Baldwin City, there are places to eat and some really good places to shop, and it's not a huge bustling place, but it is near Lawrence if you need something that's not in Baldwin.
Baker University is my home. It makes me feel wanted, appreciated, and needed. It has already given me so many opportunities to run with and I can't imagine where else it will lead me. I love being part of a sorority and other on campus organizations, I wouldn't change a thing!
The fall 2020 acceptance rate for Baker University is 77%. That means, out of _____ applications received in 2020 , _____ students were offered admission. The number of males who applied was _____ vs the number of females which was _____.
Do not fall in love with one girl early because they will mess with your life, academically and everything.
That when there is nothing to do in Baldwin City, Lawrence and KU are very close by.
The lack of support for athletics and greek life. I'm on the XC and Track teams at Baker and it seem we never get the amount of support as other sports on campus such as football and basketball. Also, greek life at least on the fraternity side is dwindling. Coaches and certain teacher don't support/accept us. Incoming men have the typically stereotype stuck in their heads from the media, party houses that don't care about school. Guys are afraid to rush or become associated with the greek system.
A clear-minded individual. Open to ideas about both liberal and conservative ideas. Must be focused and ready for an ever-changing class structure. Also have great time management skills.
Someone who likes big cities and thousands of new people and really easy classes where the teachers wont know weather your there or not.
A welcoming, respectful, learning environment that prepares well rounded and rationale thinkers to enter the workforce.
Our school is best known for its academic quality. The classroom size here is outstanding. About half of my classes here have less than 10 people in them. Also, this school is known for its friendly atmosphere. Everybody on campus always has such a friendly attitude towards everybody and it makes people feel very welcome. Also, you feel like you are part of a family here. Everybody knows everybody, which makes it very easy to make friends and feel like you're part of a family.
The small class sizes allow the professors to engage the students individually and give them one on one help.
When I tell my friends about Baker Univeristy one of the first things I tell them is how friendly camous is! When you are walking to classes People will say hello, even if you dont know them. It is a small campus and coming from a small town it is something I appreciate. I will also tell my friends about how the proffessors are willing to work with you on whatever you need help with. They want you to succceed and to do your best!
The class sizes and the teachers care for how well students do because they are both a very important part of ones education.
The most frustrating thing about Baker is the way the nursing school is away from the main campus. It makes nursing students stress about the financial situation they will have to incounter once they transfer to the nursing school.
My classmates are very tight knit which makes the baldwin campus special, this year we've faced a lot of tragedy and it has only brought us all together.
Academics are Baker University's strong point. When you look at the price tag of tuition at Baker, it can seem overwhelmingly absurd. However, once you get here, you realize that you are getting every ounce of education that you are paying for. In my two years of being here, I have never regretted my decision to study here. I almost always leave the classroom feeling like I learned something useful. But, the learning doesn't stay in the classroom, it extends to real life. While in school, away from your parents and oftentimes, the news, I think we tend to forget about the reality of the world around us. Baker doesn't let that happen though; reality is brought into the classroom and that's when the true learning begins. Quite often, school falls into a study-and-forget routine and the only thing that matters is the here-and-now grade; but, here, I have real-life, applicable knowledge.
