Prompt: What are the unique qualities of Northwestern - and of the specific undergraduate school to which you are applying - that make you want to attend the University? In what ways do you hope to take advantage of the qualities you have identified?
Northwestern University has everything an aspiring communications major can ask for. While many universities have communications programs, Northwestern's stood out among the bunch. What initially attracted me was the nature of Northwestern's Communications Studies program.
Communications is a very versatile. It can offer new paths and lead to many open doors. As someone who is interested in a variety of topics and is eager to explore a multitude of fields using communications, it is important for me to find a university that will provide me with the opportunity to do so. Northwestern's Communications Studies program does not inhibit me from expanding my horizons; it encourages this. This program will give me the chance to learn all the tools and techniques of communications for any personal and professional endeavors I face in the future. With an education from Northwestern, I know that regardless of what profession I choose to specialize in, I will be equipped with the skills I need to succeed.
Northwestern also has what I am seeking in my personal college experience. Growing up in Southern California and attending one of the top ten most diverse high schools in the region has allowed me to realize the importance of knowing people from various cultures and backgrounds. Northwestern not only emphasizes the importance of diversity, but also recognizes the benefits that it brings to students.
I want to be a part of this university's diverse community to learn from the experiences of those who are different from me and to tell my story for others to hear. Through this, I can broaden my views on society and increase my understanding of the different people in the world. I hope to use the knowledge that I learn from the people at Northwestern to enhance my education in communications.
A university with challenging classes is necessary, but lessons that can be learned from the people there are vital. At Northwestern, my education will not be defined by the walls of a classroom.
