What is University 1000/BU 1000?

It is true that University 1000 and BU 1000 are both about CONNECTION.

University 1000 is a seminar for freshman students; while BU 1000 is a seminar for new transfer students.

Both seminars have the same purposes:

  • To assist new students in making a successful transition from learning in high school (or from another college) to learning at Baylor
  • For students to accept responsibility for their learning
  • For students to understand practices and values that will impact the undergraduate experience
  • For students to begin practicing values that will lead to academic success and personal wholeness
  • For students to connect with other new students and a faculty member on campus

University 1000/ BU 1000 sections are intentionally set up in small groups with a faculty leader. The groups first meet during Welcome Week, share a dinner together, and then meet weekly for the first six weeks of the Fall semester.

New students will receive more information about University 1000/ BU 1000 during their academic advisement session, as they will register for a section with other fall courses.
