Nice job, especially for those interested in the food situation. Any chance you can edit or comment on the accomodation for those with lots of allergies?
Thanks! I personally am not allergic to most common foods but I do have a few friends with a lot of allergies. I would say all the restaurants are very supportive for all allergy and also religious accommodations. It’s even more true for the cafeterias around campus. Nothing to worry about, they will be super professional with your requests :)
Do you feel Brown had an intellectual and free-thinking culture more or less so than other schools? Also do you feel it was worth the tuition cost and how much financial aid does the average student get? Thank you so much.
Hi! I've only been at Brown so take my perspective with a grain of salt but judging from long conversations over the years with my friends at other unis (i.e. Columbia, UCLA, Cornell, UCB, Oxford/Cambridge, UChicago), 1. Brown definitely has a very top environment for cultivating intellectual and free-thinking culture. Take when the national scandals and protests were going on in most of the Ivys and other major unis, Brown had a pretty minimal effect for everyday life. You could take your stance/opinion and although other students might not agree with you, the most common thing is people just don't bring it up unless in a respectful class discussion environment. 2. To answer your other question, Brown does have a pretty hefty tuition as much or more than its other private school peers, but it really depends on what you study. For example, The U.S. Department of Education shows that one year after graduation, Brown CS bachelor's degree graduates have a median salary of $141100 USD. In that sense the tuition would've definitely been worth it. I also did a quick search and saw according to US News the average need-based scholarship or grant awarded to first-year students at Brown University was $59,928. So that's definitely not bad and we just moved towards need-blind for even international students (1 of 8 in the country). Hope this helps!
@@lovecoffeejelly6671 I’m glad the video was helpful and thanks for watching! I hope you can get an offer! I’m also an international student so I really understand the additional stress. You can check out the cab.brown.edu website to see courses that Brown offers and also the department websites that you’re interested in to see what the professors and current students are doing, I’ve been told by the admissions office that they really like to see prospectives students that can quickly integrate into the school community!
@@CapIlu-z6e Hi! From my experience, most freshman who I met at Brown usually chose at least one major that fit their general application profile. But the major is absolutely non-binding and has no effect whatsoever except the freshman advisor (usually a professor) you get will likely be from the department you chose as your intended major. Essentially, the benefit of having the Open Curriculum is that it really shouldn’t matter all the way until your junior year at Brown when there is a hard deadline for submitting your concentration, any time before that you can really do whatever you want. Hope that makes sense!
@@melaniet179 I think it depends on your friend group, don’t know about other circles but most people I know don’t smoke at all. There’s definitely not a lot of peer pressure to do so. However, judging by the crowds on the main green on 420 there are quite a lot of people who do
Brown has a few business classes under the ENGN course codes from very esteemed professors like Danny Warshay, theres also a concentration called BEO (Business, Entrepreneurship, and Organizations) this is the link you can check it out: www.brown.edu/undergraduate-programs/business-entrepreneurship-and-organizations-ab. But I guess the short answer is there isn't a pure undergrad business school if that's what your asking abt. But for most paths into Investment banking or quants, its equall valid to do a Economics + BEO or International Relations, which has a similar course structure with a business undergrad anyways. So for example, economics has courses like financial accounting, investments 1&2, corporate finance and more.
Next time, try not to focus on the food content. The main thing that’s important is how to get into Brown & what it has to offer educationally. The other stuff is subjective to people who have the same taste buds. Good video over all. Keep it coming regarding Brown content. I🤎the School. Would love to get into the MBA program but I think work may conflict with that. But I’m still interested cause it’s a great school & great program🤎🤎🤎
Thanks for your feedback! I will keep that in mind next time, I personally care a lot about the food of where I live but it makes sense that many people may not feel the same way. I think for Brown you are talking about the PRIME program right? We don't have an official MBA program like other schools but the PRIME is really good and you can cross register classes at Harvard and MIT as well.
@@heroryan7859 Thanks! It’s hard to make a video super objective and focus on the things everyone cares about but I’m glad you liked the food section. Thayer Street does have quite a lot of choices and if you do come you should download an app called Snackpass and you can order pickup options for takeout at a discount/get free food.
Hi! I am a Canadian Citizen so I was waived the English Proficiency tests, but many of my friends did take it. Ideally, for the TOEFL you would want a 110+ and on the IELTS an 8.5+. The minimum requirements that Brown gives are as follows: "A minimum score of 105 on the TOEFL internet-based exam, a minimum score of 8.0 on the IELTS, a minimum score of 130 on the Duolingo, a minimum score of 75 on the Pearson Test of English, or a minimum score of 191 on the C1 Advanced or C2 Proficiency Cambridge English Exams is expected in most cases. We do not currently accept the IELTS Indicator Examination." Hope this helps!
@@czhproductions888 thank you🤍 but would it mean that if i have less ielts scire than the expected one, they wouldn’t consider my application? I have 7.5 so im terrified of the possibility that i might not even get considered
@@ariunnsann6245 No problem! Are you applying for Master’s or Undergrad? If you’re applying for undergrad I think you should try to retake it to meet the 8.0 requirement. If you’re applying for master’s then it shouldn’t be that big of a problem, the minimum for that is the 7 band. You can check out the official website for graduate admissions.

I was watching another pros and cons video about Brown and heard that majority of Brown students smoke weed, is that true?

does brown offer undergrad business?
