Sophya 3 / 10 Oct 7, 2011 #1Does this one meet the standards of a why essay? I appreciate all suggestions.Prompt-What motivated you to apply to Rice University? Please be specific and limit your response to 200 wordsIt was a snapshot of the brick red Lovett Hall that initially caught my heart two years ago. In an instant, I recognized Rice as my dream school, which my mother described as "love at first sight". For two years, I have been imagining going through the Sallyport arch of Lovett Hall, running in the Rice Stadium, and wandering on Sunset Boulevard.Rice offers me adequate teaching recourses with small-sized classes, encourages me to be open-minded through its unique residential college systems and fulfills my artistic pursuits by holding fine exhibitions regularly. Adjacent to Texas Medical Center, Rice also made it easier for me to get internship opportunities, supporting my career as a bio engineer. How I wish to have a chance standing beside Ms. Jennifer West, co-operating her with the development of NO-releasing polymers to inhibit smooth muscle cell proliferation.Bertrand Russell had lived for three things: the longing for love, the search for knowledge and the unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind and these are exactly what motivated me to Rice.
