I love Wayland. I do not go to the traditional campus in Plainview, which is why I was unable to rate some of the items listed. However, here in San Antonio there are multiple campuses that allow for easy access and a great familiarity with the staff. Wayland offers a variety of options in scheduling, online classes and small campuses / class sizes that have really made a difference in my college experience. Coming from a much larger school, I feel my experience at a smaller more personal school has done much to benefit my education.
Wayland Baptist is 1 of 4 universities at the Education Center right here in Hawaii! Wayland in particular has a very keen focus on sciences which out weighs the other colleges and gets me pumped to start the school year!!!
Wayland Baptist University has a great soccer program and also other sports programs. The food here is could be better and we only have one cafeteria/dining hall. Plainview, TX is a very small town and not much to do here. The professors are very qualified and knowledgeable.
It is a great University. The curriculum is set up to assist you in achieving success. The only way you fail is if their is a lack of trying on your part. The professional staff is always very friendly and courteous. They are only a click away if your in need of any information or guidance. I Love my WBU!!!

I have personally become more social and I am now able to communicate with people more fluently. I have made amazing friends and have come to understand God more and what His plans are for me.
They are easy to become friends with.
Prior to attending Wayland Baptist University I wish I would have had more insight on the dishonesty of their athletic programs. There seem to be alot of empty promises about the entire campus involving status on the sports teams, and money issues. Also, I wish I would have had more clue as to the availability of financial aid, and the overall lack of organization.
The business and financial aid offices will work for you to make sure that somehow you can afford to go to college. Another thing I love is the small class sizes. You have a one on one relationship with every professor and they will help you anytime you need it. You won't find that at a bigger college or university.
Lack of financial aid options.
The best thing about Wayland is that it is a predominantly Christian school. You see God's existance in the administration, faculty, and students. The love of Christ is definantly felt here.
My university is best known for its ability to provide a more affordable option for a private university experience where one can receive a quality education in a small community. It is also known as a progressive institution for having been the first university in the former Confederate South to voluntarily integrate.
I was able to do almost my whole degree online
Sometimes, the financial and business offices aren't very organized. It makes it difficult to make sure you are on track.
The people at this school are a mixture of highly religeous, somewhat religeous, and people with just about no religeous background. I would recommend this school to anyone who likes a small close academic environment. All the teachers here at Wayland are very flexible with athletics and are always available whenever you need them. Most of them will really work with you with whatever you need. Anyone who likes a small campus with good student facilities to hangout and loves a great christian environment would fit right in at Wayland Baptist University. I would highly recomend Wayland Baptist University.
I dont think that anyone should not attend this school because I believe this school welcomes all diversities, and majors that people are into.
Wayland enables adults in the professional world a chance to complete their undergraduate and graduate studies.
Participation in class was very common. I enjoyed that a good portion of the class spoke up during the lectures. The classmates I had did not seem very competitive. Which made going to class and getting help with assignments easier. I loved that we could meet our professors before and after class. The professors were always willing to help and available for questions.
There were not any stereotypes at all. Everyone just participated and got to know each other. I enjoyed my classes because we all had a similar story. We all already had jobs but wanted to move up. We all had families at home, but still went to class at night. We all understood each other.
