Would you consider Baylor University a prestigious university?

1. The kid who said he got a full ride from Baylor probably is leaving out that he's a national merit scholar....they all get full rides mostly anywhere.\n2.Just because a university's name is not known by every mouth doesn't mean it's not prestigious. (ie Claremont McKenna-top 20 liberal arts schools in nation)\n3.If you could get the same Christian, friendly and honest education elsewhere (ie UT, TAMU or UNT) then Baylor would not  exist.\n\nTHAT SAID, Baylor is well known enough to be visited by President Bush, President Fox(Mex) and PM of Canada several times.  The best go to Baylor and the doubling application rates and lowering acceptance rates prove it.  Be sure, Baylor is a name you'll hear more of in the next few years.\n\nPS Whether a school is prestigious or not should not be at issue, it's what kind of education do you want??

I don't think that anyone rates these schools. They can also be broken down by specialties such as broadcast or print or electronic. Generally, Columbia and UC Berkeley have the most prestigious/best graduate programs and Northwestern has the best undergrad program.

I'd say Colorado State because you have the resources of a big city like Denver nearby.

well studying in a rich country's university especially the famous ones defenitely is a big advantage... especially in terms of landing your ideal high paying jobs of your field. of all the applicants, corporations will tend to hire the ones coming from reputable universities with average grades rather than the ones with high grades but of universities they havent heard of... so that being, it would surely be a good boost to your credentials to have graduated from these famous universities from rich countries (so if you have can afford it, or have the brains to get scholarships for it, i would say it isnt a bad choice to do so)...in this competitive world, one could surely use a leverage from others...but dont think that's all what it takes to succeed though, you still have to have good personality and needs to work hard to achieve your goals...

Seattle Pacific University!  It has an excellent academic reputation and has had national championships multiple times.

Be famous or be born into lots of money. I just watched a special last night about all those colleges, Yale, Harvard, Brown, etc. They said it matters not what kind of grades you make, you can have a perfect GPA, but they favor those certain individuals that already have had everything handed over to them in life. They said they have an image to uphold...what kind of sh!t is that? It's true...

Take the university with the higher world ranking.  Even if one university is well-known for their business school, that doesn't mean that the other university, which is better and more well-known, doesn't have a good commerce program as well.  Besides, if you decide to change fields, then it would be better to be in a more acclaimed university.  Besides, employers would probably recognize that school more than the other, just because it's within the top 50.

Texas A&M has a fairly good reputation for business.  \n\nIt is certainly no Harvard University or Wharton School, but it is much better than a community college.\n\nHope this helps!

Depends on what area you are looking at. Different universities have different strengths.

I agree with vhines200's answer above.  You really should look at fully accredited traditional b-schools, if not top or mid-tiered first.\n\nTo answer your question:\n\nhttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AmITS2ofinRIXsa8PhTAAltPzaIX?qid=1006012907227

I go to CAU... and its the greatest thing in the world. CAU is in the top 20 for HBCUs and it isn't exactly in downtown Atlanta. Its the largest black school and its a wonderful experience.... Welcome to CAU!

I probably seem prejudiced since I teach at UTSA, but they have a top-notch Business program and excellent facilities (no, I'm not in the Business Department).  I suppose it all depends upon what he's looking for and how devoted he is to you, but your boyfriend couldn't go wrong by enrolling at UTSA.....after all, its part of the University of Texas system and they go out of their way to get top-of-the-line faculty!

It's outstanding.  As prestigious as DeVry, University of Phoenix, and Hamburger U.\n\nIt's not even listed on collegeboard.com.  That's not a good sign.
