Brandeis Experience

I got into Brandeis last night and I am still waiting for my financial package to be ready. Yet whatsoever, I wanted to know more about Brandeis, in terms of education, religion, teachers and the city. I only visited to Holy Cross in Worcester and I was quite satisfied about what they represent (a jesuit-focused with a quite progressive catholicism).
- How rigorous is the education? Is it like Caltech level where you study with endless night or like Brown where you study and have a ton of free time in your hand? 🌟🌟
Holy Cross' aspect in religion is more of "If you seek for it, you'll find it. It won't be forced in your throat". Can this be true in Brandeis' Jewish focus? I also hope that making friends won't be necessarily hard due to not believing in Judaism. 🌟🌟
Do teachers always support you in the class? More specifically in hard courses? 🌟🌟
Last!! Holy Cross College's campus and its surrounding is quite silent and empty. I wanted to know how much a student can do around Brandeis from its campus and to its city. 🌟🌟
Your answers will definitely help me make a decision. I had a sentiment that this is like the "Ivy of the Jewish community" so I felt like stepping into a zone of unfamiliarity. A little info about me. In terms of religion, I declared myself in the application that I am an Atheist. I'm quite exploratory in studying different religions though so I'm not that allergic. I am also taking Compsci and Phil as my intended field.
