Brown, no.
J&W, no.
URI, no
So you can check out CCRI, RIC, Bryant, Roger Williams, and Salve Regina.

Any private colleges in Rhode Island with a great undergrad biology program?
Must be private please.
Top Answer:
The only private colleges in RI are PC, Bryant, Salve Regina and Roger Williams. PC is a great school, but it's extremely hard to get into. The others aren't too good (though Roger Williams has a great architecture program). I hate to break it to you, but large universities (URI, UCONN, etc.) definitely have the best programs for research-type degrees, such as biology.
EDIT: Brown! How the heck did I forget Brown! I live here and I completely forgot about the Ivy League. Anyway, Brown looks good on paper because it's an Ivy League, but people who know more about Brown realize that you can literally take any classes you want and get out with a degree. For example, you want to go for biology. You could take one biology course during your entire four years and take all English and language courses otherwise, and still get a biology degree. It's a great school and is very difficult, but believe me, name isn't everything.
I need to know all of the art schools in Rhode Island and I'm having trouble doing a search for them! You help would be appreciated! Thanks
Top Answer:
Pure art schools, and not an art major within a university, correct? To my knowledge, in RI, there is only one art school.
Rhode Island School of Design is one of the top art schools in the world, and it's in Providence. Beautiful location, right across the street from Brown, funky neighborhood. I really like it.
You'd do better if you didn't mind, and opened your search to include Mass. as well. Then you could look at Mass Art and the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, two well respected art schools. Also could look at Montserrat, or at the Art Institute of Boston/Lesley University, although those two schools aren't as good as Mass Art or SMFA.
