The hardest colleges in America to get into

[post_page_title]Brown University[/post_page_title]
As another Ivy League school, it’s no surprise that Brown University is pretty high up on this list. Although it has a reputation for its leniency and its cool, calm and collected demeanor, the college in Providence, Rhode Island is actually incredibly selective with their admissions. This private research university specializes in the arts and science and is known worldwide for its incredible School of Engineering, and the state-of-the-art Marine Biological Laboratory. Brown is a highly prestigious school that has created some of the best names in the business – but only 9% of applicants are accepted each year.
