Boston University Scholarship essay length?

<p>Hi- I applied to BU as an education major, and am currently writing my essay for the Presidential scholarship, which is specifically for education majors. It does not mention a length, so I was curious as to if there was any guidelines? I'm thinking around 500 words, maybe a little bit more? Is that enough?
Thanks!</p>

<p>Panther 1992 - I called the School of Education last week and was told that it should be in the 500 word range, but could be more. They will not penalize you if it is more. Good luck! My d is writing her essay as we speak…</p>

<p>thank you =)</p>

<p>wait we can still apply for scholarship at BU?</p>
