Brown University really has given me the opportunitySuper BrilliantHistory/Histories (art history/etc.)
Brown University really has given me the opportunity to explore my true interests both in terms of academics and in terms of extracurriculars. Its open curriculum has allowed me to take specific electives that fascinate me even as a underclassman because students almost never face being closed out of courses. The extracurricular activities available at Brown are simply amazing as well both in terms of quantity and quality. There is such a wide range of clubs and organizations on campus and most tend to conduct themselves in a very dedicated way. As a transfer to Brown, I can definitely tell you that it's a refereshingly open place to be especially compared to my former college.

Brown is beautiful.Quite BrightHistory/Histories (art history/etc.)
Brown is beautiful. You can make your own way here. In my two years at Brown, I have met many fabulous people, had my academic and creative impulses satisfied, and been to many great parties. Don't let anyone convince you that Brown is inferior to Harvard, Yale, etc. Brown is a heavenly place that will stay with you forever.
