Brown University, located in Providence, Rhode Island, is one of eight Ivy League colleges. Brown Representative Emily Cox visited with 25 Heritage students last week to give them first hand knowledge of their campus and programs.
Brown is very selective, and last year their acceptance rate was 8.8%. Students may be drawn to Brown’s open curriculum, meaning they do not have a core curriculum that students are required to take in order to graduate. Instead, students select 30 classes out of over 1800 in order to graduate; instead of majors they have concentrations.
Brown encourages students to explore classes and is looking for intellectually curious students who want to be the architect of their own education.
