Hi,

I stumbled across this thread looking for potential freshman who are attending UR next year as the class of '10

As a start, I am a D’Lion (a student organization to help Freshman adjust to campus life and help them with academic and social things) of 2009.

UR has an excellent physics department, comperable to at least CMU if not an Ivy league school.

On top of that, if you want to go to grad school afterwards, to be honest, your undergraduate education doesn’t really matter that much. As long as you prove to the graduate admissions department of wherever you intend to apply that you’ve fulfilled various physics and math requirements.

You also might find out that you like optics which we have a lovely (well right now it’s this ugly steel frame, but the picture looks pretty) building being put up for the new department.

And by the looks of the aid you’d be better off coming here at UR.

Good luck with your decisions, if you need any more help or anyhting of the sort, feel free to contact me at achang3@mail.rochester.edu or my aim: dltprm.
