Is this one about the "Why Northwestern" essay? I think its better to not to mention any favorite parts of NU etc, if you havent really visited the campus... Try to talk more about why the college of arts and sciences at NU appeals to you.... I am not sure if this is very helpful, but I say, just write what you really feel... I havent visited the campus either, so I just wrote my essay on what I actually knew.... All the best though! And you to pacific34!
