Why Brown? “I chose Brown because of the open curriculum. I was attracted to the freedom that it gave students to explore areas that they were interested in. I also chose Brown because of the team atmosphere that I saw on my official visit. I was impressed by the brotherhood formed by teammates who compete against each other every day.”
