Founded in 1858 as the first university in Kansas, Baker is an institution with a storied past. While standing in the center of our beautiful campus in Baldwin City, a person can do a 360-degree turn and see three buildings on the National Register of Historic Places. Lady Margaret Thatcher dedicated our Osborne Chapel, which was moved brick by brick from Sproxton, England.
At each of our four schools—College of Arts and Sciences, School of Nursing, School of Professional and Graduate Studies, and School of Education—faculty provide creative learning experiences while challenging students to analyze issues with depth and clarity.
The Baker University Office of Student Affairs is here to help you as you grow academically, personally and socially.

It is a good university. It has alot of other departments too. The quality of education is also good. Teachers and faculty at beaconhouse national university are very professional. The academic environment their is also good.
I don't feel I am supported as a student at the school. They just recently have offered counseling services for students but aside from that it feels like any time we have advocated for ourselves or our needs we are heard but nothing changes or is fixed.
While the new campus is an impressive investment, the lack of adequate parking has created inconvenience for students, especially since the garage arrangement wasn't confirmed until the semester began. My cohort has also faced considerable challenges, such as instability in the teaching staff. Many original instructors left, leaving the program with new professors who seem uncertain about the curriculum and effective teaching methods. Additionally, it's concerning that the school doesn't appear to prioritize students physical and mental well-being, which is a critical aspect of the learning experience.
