<p>So it says in the transfer requirements they need an essay. I assumed that that meant the essay portions of the common app and their supplement. Now, after the deadline, I'm worried that the essay they are referring to is actually a graded paper writing sample. Do you know?</p>
<p>I’m pretty sure it’s just the essay on commonapp as well as the short answer on the supplement. I think if they wanted a writing sample they would’ve expressly stated it. Additionally, if they do want a writing sample, they will email you saying that it’s missing (along with any other portion of the application like transcripts etc.) and give you an opportunity to submit it.</p>
