I would love to attend this school and will undoubtedly withdraw from other schools if I am accepted. Dr. Hansen is great. He was very friendly and helpful the whole time we were there. My student interviewer was also very nice. He was helpful in answering all of my questions and it appeared that he is very happy in Rochester. These next 2 months of waiting will be rough.
