<p>Admissions</a> Office Says Not To Fret Over Common App Word Limit | News | The Harvard Crimson</p>
<p>Hmm…that is really interesting. On the videos on the harvard.edu website they explicitly say that they expect applicants to respect their request for a 500 word limit. They better update those videos. :)</p>
<p>Man, I sure didn’t cut off at 500 words. About 700 for supplement and PS essay respectively. Cheers. :)</p>
