Why Baylor Includes the NSE Course
Baylor includes the New Student Experience course because students thrive when support is built in, not added on later.
Research and experience show that first-year success is influenced by:
- Feeling connected and supported
- Understanding academic expectations early
- Knowing where to go for help
- Developing practical skills for managing college life
NSE helps ensure every new student has access to guidance, resources, and opportunities right when they're most needed.
