Specific Personal Statement Questions

I have been working on my personal statement, but I am wondering about what schools have multiple essays or particular topics? For example, Yale obviously has an additional 250 word essay and I believe UPenn has an essay about why I want to go to their law school. Does anyone know if there are additional/specific essays for other schools? I'm especially interested in:

Northwestern
NYU
Columbia
Harvard
Georgetown
UVA
Chicago
Berkeley

I should have thought of this before the 2011 applications were shut down...but any help would really be appreciated!

Northwestern does, and so does cornell if it's on your list, it fits in with the rest of your choices.
