Why Rochester ?(1000 characters)
I always knew that I had a passion for the sciences, whether I wanted to work with humans or with animals, I knew that eventually I wanted to be some type of doctor. Last summer I had the opportunity to volunteer at my local wildlife refuge center; it was here where I gained a new-found appreciation for environmental Sciences. The University of Rochester's Science Programs appeals to me, as it has world renowned professors. As a student who plans to continue on to medical school, The University of Rochester will challenge me not only as a student but as a citizen. Its academic curriculum, which encourages each student to take a variety of courses, will allow me to become a more holistic professional. In addition, I desire to be a part of an open-minded school environment that values individuality.I am confident that this institution can provide me with a rewarding college experience. More importantly, all of the knowledge I gain will render itself useful in my future endeavors.
