Brown University Top Questions

BROWN IS GREAT!!! I'm sooo happy here.

I forgot to mention how it's the best school ever!! I love everything about it.

Housing is pretty decent. Its guaranteed all four years, which is nice since Providence is a city. However, the housing lottery is great if you have a good number, but really sucks if you have a bad one. About a quarter of rising sophomores end up on the wait list, although you can get really good stuff off the wait list. Its just really annoying having to wait until the summer again to find out where you are living.

I love this place!

Be honest with yourself. Do you trust yourself enough to confidently make your own decisions and follow your passions? If so, Brown would be a fantastic place for your college years and it would be very much enriched by your presence.

Brown alumni tend to LOVE their school and will usually go out of their way to assist you. Non-alums, also, make very favorable assumptions about your ability and intelligence just because you went to Brown.

We need more financial aid for students of low income backgrounds!

no

I would recommend Brown to anyone! I love it and don't want to graduate.

Only apply to Brown, if you're sure it's what you want. This is a very different approach to education.

nope.

Brown's awesome. You should come here. Hands down. Good luck getting in.

The no requirements opportunity at Brown is really popular but it does come with responsibility. You're expected to have an active role in your education and know how to schedule your own time well. If you are a person who needs a lot of structure and guidance than Brown might not be the place for you, especially since the advising program at Brown leaves something to be desired. As a freshman you're usually covered by upper classmen are left to figure out a lot of things by themselves. The more research you do, whether about housing options, classes or groups the better position you'll be in.
