<p>Erm, on the Emory's application we are required to write two essays.. But what if we choose to do the Common Application instead? Do we only to write one long essay then?</p>
<p>No, there is a supplement that goes with the common app. If I remember correctly though, you only have to write one common app. essay and one short essay instead of two if you are using common app.</p>
<p>yes. just 1 long essay if you do common app.</p>
