Applying to BB&N

We want students to understand what’s extraordinary about themselves. Strong academic curiosity and connection to your community are essential, as well as hearing about your pursuit of varied interests and how you learn to embrace the challenges along with the victories. What curiosities do you have? How are you involved and engaged?

There is no such thing as a “typical” BB&N student, and we welcome students who are open to new experiences, new ideas, and new perspectives. We model our culture on a shared vision of a more inclusive and just world and work toward a future where progress for all is as important as personal achievement.
