ShewantsthePhD101 Posted December 21, 2017 Author Share Posted December 21, 2017 Awesome! Do you have any idea how many religion students they usually accept a year? What's providence like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr. t Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 I have no idea about religious studies - they seem pretty small, and I'd guess no more than 10. I love Providence! It's a weird little city, and often feels like a big town; running into your students at the movie theater never gets less strange. The food scene is absolutely off the charts, particularly given the relatively small population. Coming from Boston, housing is pretty cheap, say $500-800/BR.

For some reason I'm terrified it'll be nothing but fish lol. 55 minutes ago, KA.DINGER.RA said: I'm applying to Brown for the Assyriology and Egyptology program. Ok - now THAT'S cool.

If you cook yourself there are some absolutely excellent butchers around, too. Edited December 23, 2017 by telkanuru Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShewantsthePhD101 Posted December 28, 2017 Author Share Posted December 28, 2017 ...Is Ramen actually a thing people pay for? I mean, aside from buying at the grocery store and making it yourself? There is such a thing as "good" ramen? I'm so confused lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll see. rheya19 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
