Campus Visit Notes for Brown University


Visit Description:

I went a while ago, but I live close enough that I keep going down there. Providence is a wonderful little city...especially if you are looking for the perfect balance between a hustly city such as NYC and a quaint rural town. It has everything you need and Brown is located right in the middle of it.
