College Prowler Take
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. Students Speak Out

I love Brown. I think that...
I love Brown. I think that its strongest point is that every student really is an extraordinary person in some way. The admissions people really do an amazing job picking people who are interesting, smart, and fun, so I find myself learning as much from my fellow students as I do from my classes and professors.

Love it, love it, and love it. I...
Love it, love it, and love it. I can’t imagine myself anywhere else. The idea of graduating next year is making me incredibly upset. I really enjoyed my stay at Brown. It’s been a great experience. I will treasure it forever. |

Before I came to Brown, I didn’t...
Before I came to Brown, I didn’t think there would be a big difference between the academics, particularly advising, at the schools I was looking at. It is a big deal. The possibilities that an open curriculum provides can be a big factor in your educational career. Freshman year I took a lot of classes in a concentration I didn’t end up pursuing. The switch wouldn’t have been so easy if it wasn’t for the open curriculum. It makes both the students and the professors care more. Professors know you want to be in their classes. |

Given the choice to do it over...
Given the choice to do it over again, I would definitely come to Brown. Before I came to college, I never thought that the size of the school would be something really important to me. Now I know I would never want to go to a school that was any bigger. I think the size really lets you get to know a lot of people here. All my friends who just graduated are depressed that they’re leaving. I have friends at other schools who are thrilled to be getting out after four years. |

The freedom of Brown’s curriculum...
The freedom of Brown’s curriculum encourages a versatile education and allows students to have complete discretion when it comes to course and concentration selection. |
