Freshmen Two-year Contract
First-year students wishing to reside in Brooks College are required to make a two-year housing commitment. Brooks is a special place that tries to fully capture the mission of Baylor and educate students for worldwide leadership and service through the integration of academic excellence, Christian commitment, and a caring community. We believe this goal is best achieved when students choose to live at Brooks all four years. For this reason, we require our incoming first-year students to remain at Brooks College through the end of their second year at Baylor. Students are not released from the two-year commitment to Brooks unless there are extenuating circumstances.
