<p>I'm applying to Duke as a transfer. This is its transfer essay question:</p>

<p>(For Transfer Applicants Only) If you want to transfer to Trinity College of Arts and Sciences, please discuss why you consider Duke a good match for you. Is there something in particular at Duke that attracts you? If you want to transfer to the Pratt School of Engineering, please be sure to answer both the questions above.</p>

<p>Does anyone know how long it should? (# of words or pages)</p>

<p>How long are transfer essays usually?</p>

<p>Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>I’m probably gonna apply as a transfer too! I read somewhere that the longer essays are ~500 words, and short essays are ~250. I’m not sure if this’ll apply to Duke’s thing though …</p>
