Goals:   I hope to go to Vet School starting in 2006.  If I don't get in after my first try, I will either take a year off to pursue research opportunities or apply for Grad School.

Why did you choose Delaware?  I first fell in love with UD when I took a tour of main campus, but after having a tour of the Ag school, I was hooked.  It seemed like the perfect place for me because of the farm on campus, the friendliness of the students, and the hands - on courses offered through the animal science program.  Another factor was the music program.  I needed a school that could both prepare me for vet school, and offer a venue where I could continue to play the violin.  My heart definitely lies in the Ag School, but I can honestly say that no part of UD has ever disappointed me.  The faculty is unparalleled.  Each one of my professors has been approachable, helpful, and supportive.  I can't imagine being anywhere else.
