Transfer essay - BU to Northwestern

<p>What kind of things did you people write for the transfer essay? what do you write when they ask you why you are transferring there?
I would love to hear some responses to inspire me to write.
I am applying from BU to Northwestern. if anyone has any specific advice, feel free to share. i am trying to get my mind going when it comes to the essay.</p>

<p>i am in an honors program at BU called the university professors program and i am interested in the creative writing program at northwestern as well as medill, but i dont think ill be able to get into it...so i think creative writing is good for me.
i have a 3.48 or so and i have taken quite a rigorous curriculum so far. i had a 1410/1600 on my sat I, and for sat II i had 770 for english, 660 for math, 660 for french, and 660 for literature
my high school gpa unweighted was a 3.8 and about 4.2 weighted</p>

<p>want to know my chances and good advice for an essay. i just dont want to be cliche and write the same old things about hwy i want to transfer because i am sure they have heard it 100 times. any ideas? PLEASE HELP</p>

<p>your high school stats are good but 3.48 college gpa and a 1410 aren't helping you too much, essay will be important, just be honest but optimistic, that's what i did.</p>
