There are 146 university degrees, 73 master's degrees and 22 doctoral degrees to choose from. The simplest words to describe Baylor University students are: white, rich, Baptist, Texan. In other words, 80% of the students here are from Texas, and some are middle-class and upper-middle-class white families.
