1. Northwestern doesn't have paper applicant files so send an email. Otherwise they have to scan it.
Applicant Update. Probably better than letter of intent because if you call it a letter of intent it loses some of its sincerity. Dear adcom is unprofessional.
No probs!
Congrats!! I'm Jelly !
Congrats on your acceptance. I haven't been accepted (deferred) but I recently got an email from them about various things going on at the school. Maybe you should check your spam folder because a lot of northwestern' emails tend to go to spam.
same, but they did update the fin aid deadlines. Rumored here that the second look is march 26-27.
Congrats!
Jk I called the admissions office this morning (and they were super helpful). I was using Chrome, and apparently that was the issue. So if you're having problems with registering, try using internet explorer or firefox.
Not according to Facebook
Mine were fairly relaxed. Some interviewers asked more direct questions, others it was a conversation, but nothing tricky.
Same, at least for the first year, but it will depend on where my SO gets a job. I really like the area just north of the school and it might be a bit more affordable than right in Streeterville.
The panel interviews are probably the more relaxed part of interview day. not that awkward
There are no more panel interviews. Two one on one interviews and one interview of one m4 and two applicants.
Neither were that bad for me, it was fun to feel like you were working with the other applicant to make both of you look good.
I agree wholeheartedly with this. My "group" interview was essentially just me and the other interviewee making friends with each other while the student sat back and smiled over the whole thing. Just remember: that interview is all about assessing if you can play nice in the sandbox with others, imo.
How were the interview questions, similar to the ones on the sun interview feedback page?

Same. I'm going to have to wait on some financial aid stuff to figure out exactly what I can afford/make a final school choice. But I've been browsing Chicago apartments quite a bit lately
Does anyone know what the time frame would be to start seriously looking? For example, I live in a decent sized city now but the area I live in (around a few colleges) 98% of leases run June to June and the housing rush to sign leases for this June is pretty much over already. I need a pet friendly place/have some weird things I'm a little picky about so I'm thinking I should be on the sooner rather than later side of trying to lock something in.
An hour into seriously looking I started seeing studios where they divide the bedroom a little bit (forget what they called them. Convertibles?) for like $1400-$1500 and being like "well, that seems reasonable". That's when I knew it was time to take a break.
It's probably cheaper if you split a multiple bedroom unit.
