In the past, we have not been too strict about the essay length but we do expect students to abide to those guidelines as closely as possible. If you go over by a few words, no worries – we do not sit around counting the number of words in each essay. However, they exist so that we don’t get bogged down in really long essays and are able to actually read everything in everyone’s application files.
