<p>Why would I want to go to Northwestern?</p>

<p>You have the qualifications.
UIUC is a very good school. Since you asked to be chanced, I surmise that you don’t realize how good your application looks.</p>

<p>It’s good. You can go many places so don’t sell yourself short if you aren’t 100% in love with UIUC.</p>

<p>I’m suprised U of I isn’t your safety, although if you like the campus as much as I do it’s your top choice.</p>

<p>looks like u exceed the 75th pct-ile in both act and class rank in both las and bus. you’re in for LAS. I know I heard thae bus looks at ECs alot. your ECs look good to me. plus they’d get an OOS tuition person - maybe they’d like you enuf to give you some merit money?</p>
