Over the next couple of days, we hope to give you an idea of what it is like to be a student at Brown and a sense of why we are consistently ranked among the happiest schools in the nation! You will have the opportunity to attend classes, talk to current Brown students about their experiences, take part in panel discussions, be entertained by Browns talented student groups and of course, get to know many of your future classmates. Whether you have already decided that Brown is the perfect fit, or are still exploring your options, we are delighted to show you what makes this University so special and why we think you belong here. This event is primarily designed for you as an admitted student, but it is also an opportunity for your parents and families to experience Brown. In the parent brochure they can find a number of programs specifically planned to introduce them to Brown and Providence. We encourage you to take full advantage of this opportunity to explore all that Brown has to offer.
