Why Northwestern? Essay: Economics Program/Broad Choices/Values/Chicago

Welcome to any kind of criticism. That includes positive, negative, and even thoroughly ripping it apart.

There are many things about Northwestern and the Weinberg College of Arts and Sciences that make it a very attractive place to be. In the first place, there is my desired major-economics. The undergraduate program at Northwestern has an excellent reputation and that's what initially drew me to the university. I believe that an education of this caliber in economics will be challenging, intriguing, and eye opening. In other words, it would force me to push past my previously set academic limits. As an additional perk, it will set me on the right path to accomplishing one of my future goals, which is to get an MBA. Also, I have yet to come across another midsized university with such an excellent mixture of broad study choices and top-notch programs. Even though I know what field I would like to study, the numerous course options would allow me to study the other things I'm interested in, like fiction writing or screenwriting. On top of that, I read the "A Weinberg Education" page and especially liked the point about a commitment to social justice and equity. Nowhere else in my college search have I seen a statement like that and it really caught my eye. Lastly, there is the location; right outside of Chicago, one of the premier cities in the U.S. For me, that is the proverbial icing on the cake.

avoid talking about the "midsize" campus or the location- the read about this way too much in essays. you're essay is pretty general, try to find out some specifics- maybe the name of a class you're interested in, and tailor it to Northwestern

this version is much better, you get straight to the point and crossed out the unnecessary content. the only thing that i can think of is if you can incorporate any special programs that really inspired you to apply for this college.
