Brown University To Establish Centre For Prospective Students, Families

Study in US: Brown University will now create a new center to welcome prospective students and their families this fall.

Brown University is all set to establish a dedicated center on the campus to welcome and offer a personalized learning experience to prospective students. The families of the students will also be welcomed in this new center.

Logan Powell Associate Provost for Enrollment and Dean of Undergraduate Admission said, “Given the tens of thousands of visitors we welcome every year, it’s really important to have a dedicated space where prospective students and families can check in, get a warm welcome to Brown and learn more in an interactive way, before stepping off for the rest of their visit. We’re incredibly fortunate to have generous supporters who have championed this project, which will significantly expand our ability to engage with students and families exploring Brown.”

“College tours are an exciting experience brimming with anticipation for families, many of whom have traveled a considerable distance to Brown, so this will make it easier to offer a vibrant, ample space to touch down and find a moment of calm, check in for a tour and interact with information at their own pace. For some visitors, this may be the beginning of a lifelong relationship to Brown, so it’s important to have a space that reflects the warmth and belonging that are such hallmarks of the Brown experience," added Powell.

The renovation project is entirely funded by the donors, and it will start in late May with a target completion date of October 2025. The center's staff will include the university's undergraduate teams. The center will serve as a home base for visitors and information sessions and a launchpad for tours. The space is being designed to include the photos, maps, interactive screens, and opportunities to learn about the experience of studying at Brown University.

“The interior architectural elements will support content and storytelling about the University, through digital tools, still images and more. The welcome center will provide a point of contact to the heart of the University campus where visitors can access information and gain an idea of what life here is like," said University Architect Craig Barton.
