[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And you wonder why Northeastern gets so many applications! No essays maybe? 😌 [/quote] The purpose of essays is to select the right students for the school. Northeastern is already one of the best in this aspect without requiring additional essays, as evidenced by the retention rate. https://www.usnews.com/best-colleges/rankings/national-universities/freshmen-least-most-likely-return Students have put in four years of hard work, and schools have access to abundant information, including personal essays. There is no need to burden students with unnecessary additional requirements. Other schools should follow Northeastern's example.[/quote] Some claims that Northeastern make use of data engineeirng and AI to select students. Schools, please do that. I would trust that a lot more than underpaid biased AOs subjectively reading essays that we don't even know who actually wrote it. [/quote]
