Answer:
The University of Chicago wants to know why you are choosing that university over others. Why would that institution be perfect for you: that is information that only you can give based on your own aims and experiences.
Explanation:
There is an interest in knowing what ideas about the institution you carry beforehand, that is why you are asked how will UC "<em>as you know it now</em>" satisfy your educational needs. Talk about the study program, why would it be better for you to attend there and not other uni, if you are interested in being part of that particular community, if there is a family history behind that decision, if you think it would be good for your future to be a UC graduate.

Irony.
Explanation:
Exaggeration/Hyperbole: This is an obvious over-amplification of claims or events for added effect. It is usually not taken literally. This is used to pass across a message to show the severity or consequence of something.
An example is " I was so hungry, i could swallow a horse".
This does not mean that the person can literally swallow a horse but just to show the extent of the hunger.
Humor: Humor is the quality of being comical or amusing usually to elicit laughter.
The example above, "What must you do before you get off a bus> Get on it".
This uses humor to show that one must first be on a bus before he can think of getting off and the question is constructed in a funny way.
Irony: This is the expression of one's feelings through the use of words that signify the opposite of what is really meant, usually for emphasis.
