Why Brown? “However cheesy it sounds, for me Brown is a dream come true. Only here can I play Division I water polo while also being a part of a program that allows me the flexibility to study my wide range of interests and also be prepared for medical school. The open curriculum ensures that I'm surrounded by classmates that are genuinely thrilled about the classes they're taking and will come to each class from different backgrounds and perspectives. And, most importantly, I was drawn to the compassionate and supportive community here at Brown, something that I see reflected in both the students and professors here, and of course my future team!”
