For applicants applying using the Common Application the only required essay is one of the Common Application essays. However, the Admissions staff strongly encourages all applicants, including those using the Common Application, to submit BOTH the Johns Hopkins essays. These two essays can be in addition to the Common Application essay or in lieu of it. As far as word counts, we do not state any official word limits. Typically the “day without commitments” essay runs between 500 – 1000 words while the “academic” essay runs between 250 – 500 words.
