Why Brown?: "Brown is the combination of all the things I looked for when looking at colleges. Obviously, the education is world class which is very important to me. I love the open curriculum which will allow me to explore many academic interests. I wanted to be close to, but not in an urban environment, and Brown is just the right distance far enough from home - just under three hours. Lastly, every time I visited campus everyone made me feel at home, especially the soccer team and coaches, and I've only heard positive things about Brown."
