I’m writing my Why Northwestern? essay, and it asks what the unique qualities of the undergraduate school you are applying to are. I’m applying as an computer science major in WCAS, and in my first essay draft I wrote about that specific major instead of WCAS as a whole because I really like Northwestern’s computer science course offerings. Other than that I don’t know much about the university other than stuff on their website. Where can I find more information about the professors and their research and what kind of information did previous northwestern graduates put in this essay. Thanks so much for your time.
I was wondering the same thing… I heard that colleges look for more than simply what we can find on their websites. Other than commonly accessible resources like their college websites, youtube and college confidential, where can we find more in-depth information about colleges?
