Supplement essays are a great way to show that you have demonstrated an interest in the school, but what are some ways to find out more about a school? For example, if I visit a school’s website, what should I be looking out for?
Read the school’s newspaper. Follow the school on Twitter and Facebook. You’ll get an idea of what’s going on there, what is important to the school, etc. Read the school’s mission statement.
Go to youtube and type in the school’s name. Sometimes you can find great videos of not only student life, but from profs too.
