- Hey everyone! I thought this video would be helpful for people coming to Brown or considering it! I genuinely adore this school, but there are definitely some pros and cons that are worth knowing. Let me know if you have any questions; I'm more than happy to rant :-)

in conclusion
pros:
1. the people - very helpful, unique and chill but at the same time hardworking
2. the open curriculum - lets you take classes apart from your major requirements
3. the location - really close to major cities, still has lots to explore
4. the dorms - a variety of dorming options, really nice
5. the food - quality of the food is really good
cons:
1. motorcycle/bike gangs - really loud and annoying
2. laundry system - washers and dryers are broken half the time and they take money. laundry isn't free.
3. financial aid - not as good as other ivies
4. wealth gap at brown - can be a little awkward.
5. imposter syndrome - you can feel dumb and like you don't belong here, It happens in all top universities, can be intimidating.
I found out that I got into Brown yesterday with a Questbridge National College Match Scholarship and this video made me even more excited about going 😊
Omg YAY! So happy for you
same omggg
I ED'd to Brown too! Can't wait till the ED decisions come out!
@@nandinidube4938 Good luck!
Hey Nelsa, I went through that route and got matched as well to Brown. Congrats 🎉
I went to Brown 20 years ago. It was a lot more “elite” feeling back then. More than 60% of students were from private/parochial schools vs public. That has shifted a lot over the last two decades.
I love your energy!! Thanks for the informative video 💗
I loooooved the video! Thank you so much! This was really helpful
This was super helpful and i'm glad you enjoy attending Brown!
HEYYYY, ur awesome!!! Such an inspiration
can definitely talk on the third con. there are a good number of people like me whose household income is just above the threshold of qualifying for fin aid, but we can’t possibly pay 85k per year. personally, i’m willing to take on the debt bc of the job opportunities after brown, but it’s still extremely daunting. it especially sucks when they claim that ZERO dollars of demonstrate financial need is met with loans. the truth is there are a bunch of people who will need to take on debt to go to brown, but their income suggests to the institution that they have no need
After watching this video, I really wanna go to Brown🥺 but it is a very prestigious school that has a very low acceptance rate. I feel like I don’t have chances of getting in because of the acceptance rate. Thanks for ur videos, it really pushes me to apply to Brown ED.
i loved this video! it further cemented my love for brown :)
hey cecile, I absolutely love
I think the most similar schools would be ones with open curriculums ! I feel like this is what causes brown to be so chill and I know there are definitely some other liberal arts schools that may have this type of curriculum. I wish I could give a better answer, but it also just depends on the student environment and stuff
Loved the vid! How were you able to live in a suite as a freshman? I would love to have that sort of living arrangement!
We got lucky! More housing options were open because of covid since we did the trimester thing this year :)
My tutor was a post-doc researcher at Brown Uiniversity. My university has a partnership with Yale University, but I must confess thai I am really interested in applying for a doctoral stay at Brown :)
Hi! I am planning on EDing brown this fall, but I was wondering what transportation around is like? I just need to be able to go the gym, and I am wondering if the one on campus is nice to use or students generally use other gyms?
The one on campus is really great! It even has expensive equipment like pelotons! It’s a 15 minute walk from the farthest part of campus, but if you live on north campus, like half of the freshmen, it’ll be five minutes away! It’s worth it!
“A mom here 🙋🏻♀️” This video could be an ad for Why one should go to Brown. Masterly articulated. This video helped this mom, thanks.
Aw I’m glad it helped :)
HEY CECILE what an inspiration
AHHA HOWD YOU FIND THIS
@@cecilesch IM SUBSCRIBED WHAT DO U MEAN
I can’t get over the fact that your this beautiful gosh
Question, what do you think of AP Capstone?
Because im taking AP Seminar as a junior and I just don't envision myself researching in the future. As I really want to get AP Capstone because it supposedly help you do academic research and reasoning, I don't know if colleges want a person with an AP Capstone.
I honestly think it’s a great program if you wanna pursue research in college. I really wish I continued-just because I’m doing a STEM major and I’m premed and all

How's mba finance in brown ?
Hi! This video is very helpful! I was wondering like why the financial aid is not as good as other ivy?
Brown just has a smaller endowment, but it’s still really great!
One major con is the tuition for sure, unless you're on a scholarship lol.
GI bill is pretty sweet, not gonna lie
I love your videos. My cousin goes to Brown.
I really love how students love a university or a college so much becz I'm also one of them, I'm so excited to get into my dream college
hi :) i got into class of '26 and am thinking ab committing but i got 0 financial aid and a full ride at a t1 research university. dyt brown wld be worth it ? (im a cs major)
Honestly I think it depends on your family’s financial situation and whether you want to pursue grad school! If you want to get another degree after Brown, I wouldn’t recommend spending all the money right now for undergrad if it would financially burden you. I love Brown but it’s definitely an investment and I think that the full ride might be worth looking into !!
@@cecilesch thank u so much for responding !
See u this fall :))
How did u get in Brown? :) i just went to their tour today!
Posted some vids on that:)
Is admission so difficult?
Unfortunately, yes
We are having classes with a professor from Brown University. He is a visting professor here funded by Fulbright. We are really enjoying!
Omg that’s so exciting!
Do you recommend sub free housing or are you doing regular next year
Also 20 or Flex. Thanks :)
I don’t recommend sub free personally just because it’s really isolating. If you feel very strongly about substances, go for it, but honestly I don’t even notice substance use that often in my regular dorm and it’s easier to meet people.
Also definitely flex. I never use any of my meal swipes and flex options are better in my opinion and give you more flexibility to try other food places on thayer and in providence without losing meal swipes (because technically every time I eat out for food I’m losing a meal swipe that will be wasted on the 20 plan)
My cousin Leeah is a Junior at Brown University to play Field Hockey and run Track and major in Biology she loves it there and best of all she’s a whole 5 1/2 hours away from me so we can’t fight and argue like usual
Con: They partner with EcoHealth Alliance and gain of function research. They made Project Defuse happen.
This video was so helpful! 💗Do u know of any other universities that are like brown, but have a higher acceptance rate?
Tufts is similar!:)
wouldnt exactly call tufts easy to get into my guy....it’s lik 11%...
Hamilton college in new york:)
How do you like it at Brown
Absolutely love it!
Nice vlog
Why does it feels like your voice changed?
I’m sick HAHA
Hi! Brown 2026 here! I was wondering... is Brown a party school?
Btw your video is very helpful :)
@@flaviamariagaleazzi6688 it’s honestly not a big party school but there are definitely parties if you’re interested!
oh biology and history?
Def need to make my update video HAHA
Bikes? Gangs? Motorcycles? Does that mean Brown's not safe?!
No it’s safe! They just ride throughout the state of RI but they don’t bother anyone. They just race eachother
Girl calm down have you ever lived in a city in america? Safety is about the same everywhere unless its super low income
Impostor syndrome amirite 😂
stop saying 'literally'!!
