Each spring we invite newly admitted Master’s-level students, along with their friends and family, to join faculty, staff, alumni, and peers on campus for a weekend designed to introduce them to all the Brown School has to offer. This in-person event offers a hands-on chance for students to discover the incredible opportunities and community available to them as a member of the incoming cohort. The 2026 Admitted Students Weekend will be held on April 10 – 11, 2026.
