    If it feels like Baylor’s showing up in more and more rankings of the top universities in the country — well, your feelings would be correct. Here’s a rundown of just some of Baylor’s recent honors:

    Looking for a great education?

    • Top 20% of national universities — U.S. News
    • “A” grade for core curriculum — American Council of Trustees and Alumni
    • Fulbright Top Producing Institution — U.S. Department of State
    • 1 of just 8 schools in the top 25 for best undergrad teaching & best undergrad research — U.S. News
    • Among top 20 “Most Innovative Schools” — U.S. News
    • 8 top-25 academic programs — U.S. News
    • 1 of only 37 private R1 institutions

    Looking for a great student experience?

    • No. 2 most-trusted university by parents — Morning Consult
    • No. 4 nationally for student engagement — Wall Street Journal
    • No. 10 for First-Year Experience — U.S. News
    • No. 13 most sought-after college — bold.org
    • One of America’s prettiest college campuses — Architectural Digest

    Looking for great athletics?

    • 1 of just 4 Power-Five schools since 2000 to sweep MBB/WBB/FB league titles in a calendar year
    • 13 varsity national championship teams, including men’s basketball in 2021
    • Multiple national players of the year, including Heisman Trophy (2011), Wade Trophy (2012–13–14, ‘21) and Golden Spikes (1999) winners

    We know that rankings aren’t everything — you can’t really put a number on Baylor’s Christian faith, for instance — but they are one valuable way of comparing schools, and Baylor’s growing prestige means something to both prospective students and graduates with “Baylor” on their resumes.

    Sic ’em, Bears!
