1. What makes the University of Rochester a good fit for you? In answering, identify your sources of information, including any conversations you've had with Rochester faculty, staff, students, or alumni.
---------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------
After visiting the University of Rochester, I found several qualities of Rochester to be a good fit for me. The Rochester students told me that they thrive in an international community, marked by the diversity of cultures that I value. Through conversing with a faculty member, I learned that Rochester provides a vibrant research programs in its curriculum. This would allow me to gain broad knowledge and experience in the field of Biology which I plan to study in the School of Nursing. The best quality that I admire about Rochester curriculum is that it has no required subjects. Thanks to its flexibility, I can take more chances. I more than welcome these chances that Rochester offers.

2.Rochester students represent many different points of view. Each student constructs an independent study and research plan. Describe what you will contribute to Rochester's diversity of ideas, experiences, and identities. If you can, incorporate a positive past experience where you chose your own learning path, or a negative experience where you wanted to exercise more independence.

In high school, I loved to do most activities with only one exception: science lab. Our Biology lab required each student to demonstrate team work. In spite of my passion for Biology subject, I could not see the necessity for sharing the work and effort with others. Having stressed individuality, I felt that one would do the 'real' thinking process and the rest would get the same credit for what was not theirs. Although time and energy were consumed, sharing the amount of work did not bring any feeling of achievement. However in some rare occasions, some groups comprised people who were actually unique and each had something to contribute. I believe such people are Rochester students. With my principle of individuality, I will contribute to the Meliora: Ever better Rochester community like those students.
