College is a place that has multiple functions. First and foremost, it provides the educational ground for a student's future career. The beautiful Brown University boasts an excellent academic experience with over 2,000 unique courses in a multitude of fields. Not only does Brown have genius professors, the school is also home to curious, intelligent peers who also have a plethora of knowledge to offer. As an aspiring art history student, Brown can offer me an interdisciplinary education studying art across a range of cultures and time periods. Uniquely, Brown provides special opportunities due to its relationship with the Museum of the Rhode Island School of Design. College is also the time to experience everything you possibly can and Brown University is the ideal place to do this with diverse student organizations that range from Alzheimer's Activists to the Amira Belly Dance Company. Utilizing Brown University's vast resources, I hope to fully experience all college has to offer.

I don't know how to make this more personal for me!

Adding on to what other people said, I think you have some common/general reasons that don't relate to you personally. The second half, when you're talking about the art program is where you should really elaborate: "Brown can offer me an interdisciplinary education studying art across a range of cultures and time periods" perhaps mention a few more specific programs asides from the RISD relationship.
