Preparing for NU?

<p>NU has been my dream school for as long as I can remember and I would love to live in Chicago again. I'm currently a Junior and my GPA and class rank has held up pretty well thus far. I will admit though, my extra curricular activities are a little on the weak side, although I do have quite a bit of volunteering hours under my belt. I would like to know if there is anything out of the ordinary that I should do to improve my chances of being accepted. Is there anything NU looks for specifically in their canidates? Thanks in advance!</p>
