Why Brown?: "I chose Brown University for a couple of important reasons. Location was definitely one of my biggest priorities when thinking about where I would attend due to the fact that I have been living away from home for the entirety of my high school experience at a five-day boarding school. Another factor is the open curriculum. It would give me the chance to pursue different paths and fields of study before having to decide my intended major. Lastly, Brown University has always been very appealing to me as a student and athlete as it is known for its rigorous academics and excellence in athletics."
