背景与身份 · Identity & Background≤ 300 词
We want to be sure we're considering your application in the context of your personal experiences: What aspects of your background (your identity, your school setting, your community, your household, etc.) have most shaped how you see yourself engaging in Northwestern's community, be it academically, extracurricularly, culturally, politically, socially, or otherwise?
括号里列了五种「背景」，选一种写透。后半句是重点：这个背景如何影响你在西北会怎样参与。
以下 5 选 2
脑洞题 · Oddball≤ 200 词选答
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?
可选题选 1–2 道。这道题考的是你会为什么公开站出来。
学术兴趣 / 专业 · Why Major≤ 200 词选答
Northwestern fosters a distinctively interdisciplinary culture. We believe discovery and innovation thrive at the intersection of diverse ideas, perspectives, and academic interests. Within this setting, if you could dream up an undergraduate class, research project, or creative effort (a start-up, a design prototype, a performance, etc.), what would it be? Who might be some ideal classmates or collaborators?
把两个看似无关的兴趣拼成一门课。点名西北的具体院系作为「合作者」来源。
社群与归属 · Community≤ 200 词选答
Community and belonging matter at Northwestern. Tell us about one or more communities, networks, or student groups you see yourself connecting with on campus.
查西北真实存在的学生组织，点名一两个，说清你会带来什么。
为什么选这所学校 · Why School≤ 200 词选答
Northwestern's location is special: on the shore of Lake Michigan, steps from downtown Evanston, just a few miles from Chicago. What aspects of our location are most compelling to you, and why?
把「地点」和你的学术或个人目标连起来，而不是写风景。
背景与身份 · Identity & Background≤ 200 词选答
Northwestern is a place where people with diverse backgrounds from all over the world can study, live, and talk with one another. This range of experiences and viewpoints immeasurably enriches learning. How might your individual background contribute to this diversity of perspectives in Northwestern's classrooms and around our campus?
如果必答题已经写了背景，这道别选，避免重复。
