Don't hold off till you get to Waco.  The majority of cheap housing near the college is occupied months before classes start.  However, these are not owned or controlled by Baylor, and the university is not liable for any faults or problems that occur at these places.

York St John University is not the most competitive university to get into, as its acceptance rate stands at 75%. This figure tells us that almost 75 out of every 100 applicants manage to get enrolled in the college, which is more than half of all the applicants.

However, students must not take this lightly and apply to YSJ University's within the deadlines in order to get enrolled as a student for their higher studies.
