<p>I've just checked CommonApp and it seems that Vassar has removed the option for applicants to upload a document for their "Why Vassar" essay (with no word limit). Is this option still available? Have I missed something?</p>
<p>There isn’t specifically a place to upload a “why Vassar” essay other than typing it in the 350 word textbox. I guess, if you wanted to, you could upload a longer version of your essay in the additional information section of the Vassar supplement, but this would probably seem really repetitive. Just stick with the word limit.</p>
