<p>hey guys.. i'm working on my georgetown app right now, and i'm curious how short the short essay should be. right now mine is 150 words, should i make it closer to 500? i really appreciate it!</p>
<p>mine was like 500-600ish</p>
<p>thanks!!! i just made mine around 500</p>
<p>I was accepted with a 350 word short essay, but I know people who wrote well over a page double-spaced and also got accepted. I don’t think you should intentionally shorten yours to fit some sort of word limit. I feel as if Georgetown wants you to use as much space as you need.</p>
