Summer@Brown's Scholar Athlete Program will challenge your mind, hone your athletic skills, and let you experience first-hand what to expect as a student-athlete at a selective university.
Students need not have advanced skills in the sport aspect of the Scholar Athlete Program. If you participate in a sport, enjoy it, and wish to improve, you will enjoy our program - coaches expect a wide range of experience in each of the sports. Using sport as the vehicle for academic investigation, students select a complimenting one-week academic course.
Please register for a course and sport simultaneously using the CRN codes indicated below.

Nalgene bottle) to their tennis lesson every day.
