Not to mention that it’s not their prerogative to expand to such a massive size. What you’re really upset about is the fact that not everyone can get a Brown diploma. Obviously if everyone could get a Brown diploma it would tank the societal value of having a Brown diploma. If you don’t care about the societal value of a Brown diploma, why are you making arguments about how everyone should be allowed to get a Brown diploma? | -0.1304 | 1 |

That is an objective fact and it's quite clear based on this response that you have no real answer to that. Why are multi-billion dollar institutions with more than enough resources not able to provide even a SUBSTANTIAL increase in enrollment? The answer economically seems very clear.

Instead of making a specific argument, I’ll just tell you that you are far too confident in your own ideas, which are not at all thought-out. Try to take a first-principles approach at understanding the world, and seriously try to verify whether your conclusions are true and your reasoning steps are reasonable. Try to understand thoroughly someone’s counter argument instead of tackling it immediately at a superficial level. Above all, you need to have way more patience.

Since 1970, the Ivy League INCLUDING Brown have NOT significantly increased enrollment to match up to a growing population, those are objective facts. Your "analogy" was even weaker, an actual one would be if you created a website to hold x amount of people, and as more people began joining the internet, you just instead kept the number of people admitted to the site the same. You are essentially driving scarcity for absolutely no reason, and don't give me this bullshit that Brown is a "private institution" and therefore it can do whatever it wants. It was initially developed as a public institution first of all, and secondly, it receives tons of taxpayer exemptions as a supposed nonprofit WHILE also professing liberal values of equality. If Brown actually truly believed in economic equality, than it would massively expand the number of student's admitted, it's not hard to see that basic reality. | -0.3635 | 1 |

"We should do only those actions that conform to rules that we could will be adopted universally. (2) If we were to lie, we would be following the rule “It is permissible to lie.”
The first part of your response is just indictments of the university's behavior, NOT actual responses, clearly, they aren't prioritizing their funds correctly and wasting money despite being worth billions. As to your point about funding sources, as most of the ivy League are black holes when it comes to spending, the best we can do is look at current investments. Right now, Brown owns approximately 51 properties in and around Providence(outside of campus) the majority of which are commercial or multi-family:([https://www.reonomy.com/blog/post/ivy-league-universities-or-real-estate-kings](https://www.reonomy.com/blog/post/ivy-league-universities-or-real-estate-kings)), these are not being heavily used and can be easily accessible. Your next point is also false, Brown expanding its campus(which could just mean adding new floors and existing spaces to already incorporated areas) wouldn't be an issue as there are plenty parts of Providence currently that aren't occupied by anyone, and they can just expand or buy up land there as part of a new campus OR offer to buy the land around the campus, which I'm sure people would be happy to take the money, they aren't "Stealing" any land. How do you think colleges in past have expanded their campuses, they buy land LEGALLY, which Brown has the money to do. Now, for your claim that I don't "deserve" to go to Brown, do the legacies and rich donors kids deserve it, that Brown has repeatedly admitted in the past? As the quote states above, if they "deserved" to get in then therefore I have the right to get in, based on that logic. The fact that you simp so hardly for an institution that doesn't really benefit anyone to the degree it could is sad and pathetic. | 0.1415 | -2 |

They are constantly building new dorms and buildings. I’m sure that hiring qualified faculty is difficult too. Brown has not created selectiveness through inaction. That’s like saying that a good restaurant is culpable for creating selectivity for not expanding into a chain. The idea that a Brown education is coveted emerged in the minds of the American people. Brown has no obligation as a private institution to appeal to them. Also, if Brown expanded at such a pace, it would cease to be coveted. It’s not like Brown has some secret formula for perfectly educating people that it can scale indefinitely to serve the whole population. I think you might see the value of a college education as something you show off to employers. This is a poor way to look at it. A college education is just that, an education, a bunch of learning that happens. | 0.7935 | 4 |

But they choose not to. They feel that they can support an undergrad population of 6800 and that is the ideal size for them. Expanding would lose what makes it Brown.

finally, your most egregious claim is you deserve to be here. it frankly isn’t for you to decide and is degrading toward all the talented, hardworking people out there. there are countless students that work twice as hard, are twice as smart, and are twice as accomplished. college acceptances aren’t equal. someone who’s nationally or internationally distinguished or is genuinely just interesting has a better chance over someone on the opposite ends of those spectra. seeing as you were rejected early means you’re lacking in comparison. as you are now, taking a gap year, like a previously mentioned, won’t do any favors for your chances of acceptance. moreover, complaining and demanding for a “better” system that suits only you is delusional. hopefully this is a reality check. best of luck. | 0.98 | 8 |

Brown has billions of dollars endowed currently, it could easily expand its facilities and invest in accommodating far more students than it currently does in the following years should it wish to. Furthermore, there is an argument to be made that because Brown has not seriously increased its class size to account for the rising population in decades, that artificially drives up selectivity because more people are applying to a college that hasn't kept up with the growing world population, and only further exacerbates that, by creating a fake sense of "super-selectiveness" which causes even more people on that. | -0.1504 | -4 |

Colleges can only accept a certain number of students due to limitations on professors, dorms, dining halls, etc. This number changes very little every year, usually it increases. While the number of admitted students remains constant, the number of applicants increases each year. So, as the years go by, the admissions rate, I.e admitted students / number of applicants, decreases. There is no artificial selectiveness at play here.

"Each year, we find ourselves in the difficult position of being unable to admit a great many of the students we would like to see on our campus. " This is complete bullshit, Brown could easily accept FAR more students and I feel like I should keep applying until they allow me to come in. I hate artificial selectiveness:( | 0.4767 | -7 |

There's no reason why you shouldn't deserve to go anywhere in particular; it's just a really unfortunate fact that our top institutions don't have enough spots in their undergraduate colleges for everyone who might deserve one. | -0.2716 | 9 |

Put yourself out without exhausting your social battery. I did this a lot, so I have these little different clusters of friends- from pre-orientation, my dance troupes, some classes where we made study groups to struggle through homework together, I made a lot of friends through friends too, at a few social events (festivities, socials), on my dorm floor, and one friend group was literally made under a lamppost on the sidewalk where I just randomly joined a conversation with, which eventually lasted for 2 more hours into the night.
​
Bottom line: don't stay in your room too much, get out n about, join clubs that interest you, and put effort to meet up (get a meal, watch a movie, go thrifting/shopping, etc. whatever) and spend time with people you feel you vibe with or you'll just end up with a shallow "hi-bye friendships" :)) Good luck! and congrats on getting in :) | 0.987 | 5 |

This is literally key right here. I was stupid my first semester and made this mistake of isolating and justifying it with the "not my scene excuse".

It’s completely possible to have a vibrant social life without partying or frat culture, which is something I love about the school. Like every other college, there’s going to be your typical first year friend groups, drama, etc. but 99% of people are welcoming, so genuine, and considerate. The upperclassmen in the clubs I joined went out of their way to reassure and reach out to me. I struggle with social anxiety and I’m not the most comfortable around substance use, but the chill culture makes it easy to find your boundaries and extend your comfort zone at your own pace. | 0.9619 | 4 |

It’s so easy to spend days on days in your dorm especially when classes start to pick up but it’s just as easy to go out and be welcomed. There’s always plenty to do and you’ll almost never regret going to a school sponsored event hosted by a club or more casual social event it’s just a matter of taking the step to accept invites. As an introvert it’s easy to say “that’s not my scene” and be a month into classes knowing absolutely nobody but it’s never too late to make an effort to step outside of your comfort zone and meet others. You’ll find people aren’t so intimidating here! And if I could leave you with one piece of advice, don’t bother with trying to get to know people on social media before arriving on campus if that’s not your thing, there’s plenty time for that during orientation, I would focus on living up your last high school summer. Congrats on the next 4! | 0.9689 | 8 |

Didn't know anyone else in the North East, bad social anxiety. Had a very hard time making friends in my first weeks at Brown. But joining clubs really did make a huge difference. If you find something you can get really involved in, like the Debate Team (what I did), you will find yourself surrounded by extroverts whose job it basically is to befriend you. Like, I know that's not super helpful, because it can be scary to force yourself to go to extracurricular group events, but if you're able to physically put yourself in those spaces I think you will encounter people willing to put in the effort to get to know you. Especially since you presumably share a mutual interest, otherwise you wouldn't be in the same club.
IDK how Covid will affect things - I pray that the world is closer to normal by the time you get to Brown - but presumably there are Zoom events as well if need be.
I won't lie to you and tell you it will be easy. Moving somewhere new with social anxiety is not fun. But Brown is an amazing place full of incredible academic opprotunities and amazing people who would be happy to get to know you. Best of luck. | 0.9868 | 11 |

So I ended up moving to the unit in late August and it was a complete disappointment. The carpet was dirty, the bathroom was disgusting, the windows were broken, and the bed frame was in shambles. The place was completely trashed and it wasn't even clean when I moved in. There's only one person managing the entire building and she couldn't find someone to fix all of my complaints within the next 2 days so we ended up terminating my lease without a fee. Signing a lease with this place was an actual nightmare and I had to stay in a hotel until I found an apartment last minute. PLEASE DO NOT CONSIDER THIS PLACE. If you need help looking for short term leases, you can reach out to me or there is a Facebook group where people post subleases! | -0.9083 | 1 |

If you need a gap year consider other reasons on your application or at least keep in mind what I have just said. Best of luck.
Edit to be clear: they only did this with mental health breaks / gap year for mental health, not for the same breaks for other reasons | 0.8442 | 2 |
