Description:Introduction from the AuthorThere are three responses that I get when I tell people I go to Brandeis The first response is one of confusion, as many people have never heard of Brandeis University— and even fewer know of its isolated location in the Boston suburb of Waltham. The second response that I get is a stereotypical one. It seems that some people that know of the school tend to think that the entire student body is made up of Orthodox Jews. The third response is my favorite—, it is one of recognition, admiration, and acknowledgement. As Brandeis continues to rise in the rankings, more and more people are taking notice of the school. As I move through my years as an undergraduate, I am happy to confirm that many new people I meet—and in the Boston area, you’ll meet so, so many—are now finally giving Brandeis University the credit it deserves. I really do love that third response.Why, you may ask, is Brandeis —lovingly referred to as ‘Deis to many of its students— becoming more and more recognized? The most general answer is that it has continually moved up the rankings as not only a top research university, but also one of the top overall universities in the United States. What makes this even more amazing is that Brandeis was founded in 1948, making it a baby among its collegiate peers— we’re only 312 years younger than Harvard! While Brandeis may not be competing academically with Ivy League schools anytime soon, the more immediate goal is to keep up with some of Americas other upper-echelon schools such as Tufts, Emory, Connecticut College, and Vanderbilt. Fortunately, the numbers indicate that Brandeis is doing more than just keeping up; the school is surpassing some of the more prestigious schools in the U.S.Since college is not all about the academics, many prospective students wonder about the social oppurtunities that Brandeis brings to the table. While you would probably never hear “Brandeis” and “party school” mentioned in the same sentence—unless the sentence happened to be, “Brandeis is really not a big party school”—Brandeis students certainly know how to have fun. Just be sure to make a mental note that, if you are planning to drink and do drugs seven days a week, this is probably not the school for you. Because Brandeis is located within short driving distance of the largest college town in the world, you shouldn’t have a problem finding more constructive things to do. Boston provides so many opportunities not only for recreation, but also for jobs and internships.If you’re interested in Brandeis University, you probably have some idea of what it can offer you in terms of academics and professionalism. Now be prepared to ask yourself a larger do you want to spend the next four years of your life there? No matter how much information you may think you know about a college, that’s not an easy question to answer. I’m sure that this guidebook can provide you with some insight into what life is really like at Brandeis University.Andrew Katz, AuthorBrandeis UniversityWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
