西北大學公布了2023-2024年的申請文書題目,這次的變化可謂是一個重磅發現。與以往不同的是,西北大學取消了對common application的要求,取而代之的是一道由該校設計的300字問題。

官網明確表示西北大學不再硬性要求申請者完成common application申請系統或是Coalition申請系統的申請文書,而是需要申請者完成西北大學自己提供的問答題。
另外官網也表示,如果你已經完成了common application的文書,可以在原有的基礎上適當的修改一下作為西北大學問答題的答案。
當然如果你覺得在必答題環節沒有完全的展示出自己的特質以及閃光點,也可以選擇提交common application的文書作為附加文書。

必答題(300字)
We want to be sure we’re considering your application in the context of your personal experiences: What aspects of your background, your identity, or your school, community, and/or household settings have most shaped how you see yourself engaging in Northwestern’s community, be it academically, extracurricularly, culturally, politically, socially, or otherwise?

文書部分不光有必答題,還有5個可選題,官網建議至少回答一個。(200字)
Painting “The Rock” is a tradition at Northwestern that invites all forms of expression—students promote campus events or extracurricular groups, support social or activist causes, show their Wildcat spirit (what we call “Purple Pride”), celebrate their culture, and more. What would you paint on The Rock, and why?

Northwestern fosters a distinctively interdisciplinary culture. We believe discovery and innovation thrive at the intersection of diverse ideas, perspectives, and academic interests.

Who might be some ideal classmates or collaborators?
