How long should the 'How does Chicago satisfy your desire' essay be in its length

<p>Hi, I am RD and just finsihed writing UC's Question 1. How does the University of Chicago, as you know it now, satisfy your desire for a particular kind of learning, community, and future? Please address with some specificity your own wishes and how they relate to UChicago.</p>

<p>I got carried away and wrote around 600 words. I feel that my essay is pretty good, and would like to submit it like that. However the chicago uni instructions say a paragraph or two. But they didnt mention how long each paragraph can be. Any advice on what I should do?</p>

<p>I think 600 words will fit on one page single spaced so that should be OK. BUT be sure to review, edit, and then edit again; at that length, there should be not one extraneous word.</p>
