At Rochester I would expect to major in Physics or Mathematics-Statistics, with a minor in a related area such as actuarial sciences or economics. The certificate program in Actuarial Studies is interesting to me, and this kind of certificate is not available at most other institutions. The flexibility of the curriculum is intriguing because it would allow me to explore and pursue my interests--both in and outside of my major. The opportunity to build my own curriculum separates Rochester from other research institutions.
During my visit to the campus I was intrigued by Ms. Britton's discussion of the Take Five program. If offered admission, I would be thrilled to have the opportunity to apply for your Take Five scholars program. This program holds a special appeal because I am starting college with only a general idea of what I want to study. Where else could I spend an extra semester or year studying my interests outside of my major?
In addition, as someone who appreciates and engages in outdoor activities, the location of the Rochester campus right on the Genesee River is important to me. In the past I have participated in both canoe races and sculling races.
