Why Brown? “As a student-athlete, it has always been a goal of mine to attend a prestigious university and play Division I football. Brown University gave me the opportunity to achieve both. At Brown, I will be given an academic experience unrivaled by any other school in the nation. Not only is Brown a prestigious university, but its open curriculum sets it apart from the rest of the Ivy League which grabbed my attention. I know that Brown will give me the best opportunity to pursue and accomplish my academic and career goals. In addition to the education, I look forward to the athletic experience as well. During the recruiting process, I instantly felt a part of the Brown University football family. With the opportunity to play early, I am excited to contribute to the football team and help bring an Ivy League championship to Brown. Lastly, I felt most at home in the city of Providence and on the campus of Brown University. These are the reasons why I chose Brown.”
