Everyone has their own circumstances so you're the best person to evaluate your situation and make decisions. I just want to point out that if you did transfer to Brown, you would need to take at least one gap year (which isn't a problem since most premeds here take at least one gap year anyway) because in order to receive the committee letter, HCA requires you spend at least three semesters of study and complete at least half of your premed science courses here.

If you’re coming in as a transfer and dealing with finishing concentration and pre med requirements in two years you may not have much room to use the open curriculum to your advantage. You certainly will be able to join study groups, get more advising, and find clubs and other social activities to meet people though. You won’t be starting from nothing in terms of research, your experience and the professors you meet should provide you close to the same chance of getting opportunities. I’d recommend figuring out how many of your courses will count towards requirements. Perhaps email admissions or your intended concentration department to find out

According to [Considerations for Double Concentrating](https://www.brown.edu/academics/college/degree/doubleconcentrating), a maximum of two courses can be counted toward multiple concentrations. Using set theory concept, the intersection of two concentration requirements sets can only have two courses. In your example, there are 4 courses in the intersection ...

hello i have no idea what the answer to your question is nor did i read it, but just wanted to let you know that double majoring (unless you switch one of them to a BS) still means you only get one major on your diploma, and one diploma. it does not mention the other concentration at all - just fyi.

Submitting a good music supplement is very unlikely to be the deciding factor in whether you get admitted since Brown isn't a conservatory. If music were truly an important factor in your application it'll likely be demonstrated in other parts of your application like going to competitions/winning awards. Even then, if you were to submit a supplement the importance of whether your supplement is faked or not is probably negligible.

1. pretty solid. If you have the prerequisite knowledge, they tend to be accessible (depends on dept., probably). Freshman summer research ops are not too common as you don't know a lot, but they're not unheard of. 2. difficult but not impossible. There's a little inflation in some classes, but should be manageable to get 3.8 if you put in the work. Not a premed here but have friends who are.We don't have deflation and most classes aren't even graded on a curve. 3. there's a ton...explore relevant department websites n all 4. They help in that they're always very approachable and willing to help however they can, but you do need to make the effort to reach out and find those opportunities. 5. pre-med is not a concentration afaik. I've heard this is a good place to do pre-med from, tho (even without PLME). 6. Many upperclassmen do move off-campus, and it's better, going by what I've heard.

You are correct. I assumed, incorrectly, that they are a domestic applicant. Looking at past posts, I see they are international. So in that case, no, international applicants cannot apply for aid the second year if they did not initially apply for aid.

I assume you are referring to finaid for domestic (US) non-transfer students? Unless something has changed if you are an international student or a transfer (non-military) if you do not apply for financial aid when you are first admitted you cannot apply during subsequent years. This is important because admissions for transfer and international applicants is need aware (i.e. they take into consideration financial need in your admissions decision). I suspect OP is asking because they are thinking about applying without asking for aid to increase their admissions chances and then apply for aid afterward but per finaid's website this isn't possible. [Transfer financial aid page](https://admission.brown.edu/transfer/financial-aid) "If you are a transfer applicant who may need financial aid at some point during your Brown career, you must submit a financial aid application when you first apply. Admitted transfer applicants who did not apply for aid in their original transfer application are not eligible to apply for financial aid at any point later in their time at Brown." [International financial aid page](https://admission.brown.edu/international/financial-aid) "International students who do not apply for and receive financial aid upon admission to Brown are not eligible for institutional aid in subsequent years, even if a student's financial circumstances change or a sponsor discontinues providing support." OP def reach out to the FA office to confirm the website info is up to date if you are either an international applicant or non-military transfer.

Unless things have changed since I graduated in May, there's not really any good late night options. Idk if brown study spaces have opened back up but you can certainly find a quiet public spaces outside with decent lighting within range of Brown wifi (you can get on guest if you're not a brown student). The IHOP on the west side of the mall is a bit of a walk but is open 24 hours and is usually petty quiet. The staff there is pretty chill im sure they wouldn't harass you if you got a meal and coffee and stayed quiet a while. Don't know if they have wifi. Sakis downtown is also open pretty late and probably has wifi. Not really super quiet since it's a pizza place, but they're also pretty chill and probably wouldn't harass you if you buy a slice and hang out for a while on your laptop.

Basically instead of an interview they had another option in which you could make a two minute video showing your interests or personality.

It will vary a bit depending on the department/program. Here are the general guidelines: https://www.brown.edu/academics/college/degree/concentrations/declaring EDIT: After reading those over check with the specific department/program you intend to declare a concentration with for their specific process. The second concentration can be added later.

I was in Neuroscience. Unfortunately I didn’t know anyone from that department so I’m not sure how different the application process there is.

Cold email a PhD student from the department website. In my experience most graduate students are willing to answer questions about what their program is like.

Thanks for getting back to me! And wow that's great. What department were you in? I'm hoping to get a phd in literature.

Yep! Even though this post is 8 years old, I still agree with what I wrote then.
