JOKES ASIDE (its not a joke tho im dead serious are there any💔) I GOT INTO BROWN EARLIER TODAY AND IM SO EXCITED

I matched with Brown through QB, this is one of the greatest moments ever.

Please post your one-off questions in this thread

Got offered a Statistician position. I have 5 YOE and worked previously at Apple as an engineer. The salary was $82k. Providence is amazing and the tuition benefit is nice, among other benefits (I am currently paying $700/month for health care), but dang, I was expecting a bit higher.

This experience will look great on my resume but I was expecting a bit higher.

Hi everyone, I just wanted to see if any others here have been, or will be part of the MTL degree program. For those that have completed the program, I was hoping you may be willing to share your overall thoughts and experiences. Thanks!

Hi! I plan to attend a summer program at Brown, and was wondering what churches are near campus. For reference, I normally attend a non-denominational Christian church, but my dad's side of the family is Baptist. So I'm looking for a church that falls in those categories. If you know what the walking distance to the church from the school, please let me know! Thank you!

i mean, how much should an average brown student should study or do y'all feel oftenly overwhelmed by the work they give you?

Applying to graduate program PRIME, one of their requirements is two video prompt essays. The response needs to be under a minute each. Does anyone have any idea of the kind of questions that prop up in these video essays

hi everyone!

i'm a college senior (not brown, unfortch) who recently accepted a job in providence (yay)! i'm now looking for housing in/around downtown providence and nearby-ish. ideally, i'd like to be within a 20-25 min walk to work or a 10-20 min bus ride, although i'll also be getting a car soon. i would also like find one female-identifying roommate (preferably college grad, early to mid-20s) to cut down on housing costs. my personal budget is $2k/month but a combined rent of about $3.5k-4k/month with a roommate. i'd also like to get a cat eventually, so the apartment needs to be pet-friendly!

if you're also a senior staying in the providence area post-grad (or know someone who is), please message me! or if you have any recommendations for good food and things to do in providence! thanks :)

What residential halls are pre-college students typically placed in?

Havent received idoc requesting email from Brown. Does this mean I have no chance ?!?!?!

I received an email named 'RE: Non-Custodial Waiver' from Brown a few days ago. However my parents aren't divorced. Plus, a friend of mine who applied to Brown with financial aid -like me-, didn't received it. Thus I'm wondering if it's a mistake or not ? I emailed to Brown about it but they didn't return.

so im applying ED to brown, and theyve requested my IDOC documents, I got an email from collegeboard, and ive submitted them through IDOC. But on my brown portal, the financial aid portal, it doesnt even show up as requested let alone recieved, all i see there is my css profiles has been submitted. Is this something abnormal i need to email them to fix? thanks

Please post your one-off questions in this thread

For those of you who got in, when you were writing supplements, did you include course numbers?

Esp when courses are from different majors. For example for the Brown Open Curriculum question

if not then how else can i make it explicit that those courses are from different domains

applied ED to brown and haven't sent mid year report. yet, today it's showing that it has been waived. what does it imply? is it good or bad?

Hi everyone! Does anyone know when Brown will release the application decisions for ED 2024?

Thank you!

Hi everyone! I wanted to announce that we're starting a speedcubing club at Brown, so if you're a student and you're interested in joining - please DM me or leave a comment here

Hi all - I need to make around 50ish small stickers (I think it’d take up like three regular-sized paper sheets of stickers so not a ton), but would anyone happen to know where I might be able to do this for free on campus? Don’t really want to pay if there’s a way to just get sticker sheets and print and then I could just cut them out myself.

If anyone has any experience with this or could point me in where to look that’d be great, thanks!! 😁😁

Hi, I am a 11th grader in high school I am trying to look into colleges and I wanted to hear from college student. I want to be a labor and delivery nurse. I would very much like if you guys could tell my the pros and cons and tell me how you guys are liking the school.( I am the first person in my family to want to go to college so I am clueless) Thank you!

Or any hang out spots that are less known:)

I came across a comment by a Reddit user who claimed to be a senior at your college. They argued that extracurricular activities done abroad are inherently more valuable than those done in one's own country. To illustrate, they suggested that reading books to children in Bosnia through the European Youth Corps holds more significance than my four years of teaching disadvantaged girls in Turkey, where access to education for girls is often limited.

Personally, I believe in following my heart. For me, dedicating four years to improving the lives of overlooked individuals, children, and animals within my own community -people I share a living space with- is far more meaningful than hopping on a plane just to impress admission officers I’ll never meet.

The real question, in my opinion, isn’t about where or what you do—especially since not everyone has the privilege of traveling abroad frequently—but rather the impact you make, what it means to you, and the commitment you show. I don’t see either experience as inherently superior to the other. What do you think?

How common is it for students to take winter and summer session courses? And if so which years would you recommend taking them?

Also, I didn't realize this was possible but what is the process for preapproving courses taken at a different college?

How do ppl like it

hey guys, i just heard that if you double concentrate, it doesn’t show on your diploma and they will only put one of your concentrations. is that true? i am looking to get an AB and ScB so i am also wondering if i’ll get 2 degrees or just one and if both will show on my diploma. thanks!

Hi everyone!

I’m a dog walker and pet sitter serving Oak Hill Pawtucket and the East Side of Providence.

With holiday travel coming up, I’m sharing my info here in case you live in my service area and need pet care over the holidays. I currently have availability 7 days a week, including Thanksgiving and December holidays (except 12/31-1/1, as we’re closed those days).

If you’re looking for dog walking or pet sitting, I’d love to keep your furbabies company while you’re away! I’m insured, certified in Pet First Aid/CPR, and have over 20 years of experience caring for pets of all sizes and breeds.

Even if you’re outside my service area, I’d be so grateful if you could share my info with friends or family who live nearby and have pets, as I’m working hard to spread the word about my business.

A list of services, rates, a map of neighborhoods I service, and full details are on my website: linktr.ee/littlefriendpetcare.

Thank you! 🙏🐾
