Brown's innovative Open Curriculum, with no core requirements outside of the concentration, makes students the architects of their own education. This flexible but rigorous approach to undergraduate education pushes students to be creative thinkers, intellectual risk-takers and entrepreneurial problem-solvers. Personal Attention
Our 7:1 student-faculty ratio means 70% of classes have fewer than 20 students, and 100% of Brown faculty teach undergraduates. First-year students have both a faculty or staff advisor, as well as a trained peer advisor. Affordability
Brown meets 100% of demonstrated financial need. Through the Brown Promise initiative, we have eliminated packaged loans from all undergraduate financial aid awards. Our generous financial aid ensures that financial considerations do not prevent talented students from choosing Brown. Community
Many memorable Brown moments happen outside the classroom. With more than 400 student organizations, Brown lets you pursue the activities you've always loved, discover new passions and find a diverse community of people who share your interests. Success Snapshot
