​My name is Caty Hanson, and I am the admission officer at Brown University who works with students from your area. As you are considering your college options, we hope you have been able to explore our website and view our recorded information session. If you have questions about Brown or the admission process, we are here to help! I am reaching out to invite you to join me for my virtual Office Hours. These Office Hours will provide an opportunity to ask any questions that are on your mind. If this sounds helpful, you can register for one of these events:

• Thursday, September 15 at 8:00 PM
• ​​​​Tuesday, September 20 at 8:00 PM
• Wednesday, October 5 at 8:00 PM
• Tuesday, October 18 at 8:00 PM
• Tuesday, November 15 at 8:00 PM

I also know that you have a lot on your plate this fall, so if you are unable to attend an Office Hour, don’t feel any pressure to participate. These are meant to be an optional resource for you to learn what you need before applying to Brown. We do not track demonstrated interest, so whether or not you join will not impact your admission decision in any way. And if you’re hoping to learn more about student life specifically, feel free to connect with current Brown students at askastudent@brown.edu. However you choose to engage with Brown, we look forward to getting your questions answered. 

All of our events are listed in U.S. Eastern Time (ET). Please visit this website to coordinate with the time zone of your location. If you can't make it, we invite you to browse our website or connect with the Brown community through our events and programs.

Sincerely,

Caty Hanson
Senior Admission Officer
