Overall ExperienceWhat's This?

Brown has a reputation that precedes itself. As an Ivy League school, Brown carries a distinction that many students desire, while knowing little about what they need or want in a liberal arts education. In that sense, Brown’s liberal nature and open curriculum exceed that of the average liberal arts school. Many students redefine and rediscover themselves in college, and Brown’s biggest strength is that it promotes individual development and self-discovery over the course of the undergraduate career. Internally, you have a lot of chances to make mistakes, which the University calls “discoveries,” in the course of your studies. It’s easy to change your concentration in the fifth or even sixth semester.

Few people who choose Brown regret it. While it’s not the school for everyone, almost anyone can find what they are looking for at Brown. Whether you are from New England or Siberia, there are clubs, organizations, classes, and fellow students who share your academic and personal interests. Most people choose Brown for its liberal nature and its strong academic resources, and few are disappointed.

Good Very Close, Providence Not So Much

Right next to Brown is a street called Thayer St. It has tons of really good cheap restaurants and stores. It has basically everything you need. Providence the actual city can be sketchy at times and doesn't really have that much to do...

Good Computers but Should Have Your Own

Lots of computers and printers but definitely better to have your own individual computer and printer - SO much more convenient.
