Why did you choose Delaware?  When researching colleges, I was specifically looking for programs having to do with Animal Science. I took the time to arrange a one-on-one tour with an Ag Ambassador so that I could get a feel of the facilities. The aspect that really made my decision was the hands-on experience that the students gain right away in the program. Also, the close proximity of the farm was a major draw for me. The University of Delaware's farm is within walking distance, while at some other colleges you may have to take a shuttle to a farm located a half an hour away.

Future Plans? I will attend Tufts University Veterinary School in the Fall of 2005.
