Your record is obviously strong in all ways. One thing Northwestern looks for in such cases in whether or not you are strongly interested. Demonstrated interest and `Why Northwestern’ essay becomes extremely important, otherwise, you risk being rejected/waitlisted.
Anybody have any links with information about NU’s Engineering First? It looks really interesting and I get the basic, but I’m a little confused on the specifics
Another unrelated Q: Do you guys think I’ll be penalized for lack of demonstrated interest if I haven’t went to a college fair or see the campus? They haven’t really visited anywhere near me (to my knowledge atleast) but I’m worried I’ll be at a disadvantage compared to someone else who had the opportunity.
Is anybody here a Ventures scholar. I got a letter a few months ago from Northwestern saying they’ll waive my application fee as a Ventures scholar, but I had never even heard of it before then.
Hi just joining the thread now - I finally submitted!
Submitted app yesterday. Is there a portal or anything?
@Zeppelin7 https://www.mccormick.northwestern.edu/students/undergraduate/first-year/engineering-first-coursework.html
http://segal.northwestern.edu/programs/undergraduate/design-thinking-communication/curriculum.html
the engineering videos on youtube are really helpful too. students talk about their experiences with the engineering first program.
btw, I just applied to mccormick too! (DTC looks amazing I can’t wait)
I applied RD and still haven’t heard anything as to whether or not they even got my application. Do I need to wait a little longer? Shouldn’t I get some sort of email???
Hi! I’m an international applicant applying to SESP.
Did anyone else apply RD to SESP?
@IBislife when did you apply? I got an email a few days after
@graceann September. 
@janevyl I applied to SESP for Human Development!!
Should you submit FAFSA before getting accepted or wait till you get accepted (seems like FAFSA submit deadline is before decision date)?
It seems FAFSA can only list 10 colleges. How do you submit for more than 10?
I submitted my application last week, and will be spending the next few weeks waiting with you guys. Best of luck to all! 
@shivaya Hopefully this helps! https://fafsa.ed.gov/help/fotwfaq14.htm
@azwu331 - Thank you for sharing. I will follow-up with those options once my current submission is processed.
I applied on Jan 1 and got the email confirming my application today, is there not a portal?
@a1h313 nope there is no portal
Was accepted in ED, ask me if you want to ask any questions etc 
@CmBsTAg Which school did you apply to? 
Did anyone get an email about getting an interview with an alumni? I got one today and don’t know if they offer it to everyone or just select students.
I got one @tennisgirl9019
