<p>Hey guys!
i'm about 99% sure that I'll be attending UCONN next year! To be honest with you, it was def not my first choice, but once I visited, I realized that UCONN truly has a LOT to offer in the sciences. It seems as though research opps are abundant. I was truly surprised when I attended the open house last Saturday. I've been accepted to the honors program as a bio major (will probably concentrate in molecular & cell bio). Anyone else attending?</p>
<p>I'm definitely going, I sent in all my payments and signed up for orientation (1st session). Me I'm going to major in Biomedical Engineering.</p>
<p>I'm definitely going. I'm Honors Program & Combined Program & Dental Medicine. I sent in everything and am now just looking forward to orientation.</p>
<p>Which orientation are you going to?</p>
<p>I haven't heard back yet but my 1st choice was the first one and my other two choices were like the 3rd and 4th or something like that.</p>
<p>I'm going, but I haven't sent my payments in yet (definitely wasn't my first choice, but then based on money and distance....). I'm going to be studying engineering, most likely mechanical, in the Honors Program.</p>
<p>If you go here, <a href="http://www.newhusky.uconn.edu/orientation.htm%5B/url%5D">http://www.newhusky.uconn.edu/orientation.htm</a> , scroll to the bottom and send em a message by clicking on the red thing they should tell you when your session is.</p>
<p>thanks i'll do that</p>
<p>I'm sending in my payment today, so I have to wait to find out about orientation. It'll be one of the ones in June, most likely.</p>
<p>I was in the bios too at uconn. It wasn't my first choice either but if I had to do it again I would in a second. I loved it and it let me excel in the sciences.
The research is the best around, especially in Chem...
I'm going to Columbia for grad school and I am sure my research at Uconn is a big reason why.</p>
<p>I just got my stuff in the mail today and I'm going to the first session of orientation.</p>
<p>im borderline..it really tempting tho, i just got my letter for the honors program, and the free ride always helps too..who would have thunk it?</p>
<p>its the only school in ct i applied to..i guess ill have to wait till april :(</p>
<p>Is the physics department any good?</p>
<p>I'm definitely going. The honors program seems pretty cool and the opportunities for research are certainly interesting. I plan to major in physics and maybe CS also. About UConn's physics department-- I think you might be surprised at how good it is. Check out

For a sample of some cutting-edge physics research going on at UConn, read a bit about Professor Ron Mallet's work at <a href="http://www.physics.uconn.edu/%7Emallett/%5B/url%5D">http://www.physics.uconn.edu/~mallett/</a>
Are any of you guys going to the open house next month?</p>
<p>Yay, I just got in today! I can't say that if im going or not though</p>
