If I went 2 words over Duke’s 150 word limit, would they care? Also, what about 7 words over the 250 limit on the next essay? Thanks.
Hi, I’m sorry if you applied already for the priority interview deadline and this is too late. If not, though, I’ll answer: Common App does not allow you to have any additional words. I don’t know about the other systems, but definitely, on Common App you cannot submit if you are over.
@PeregrineFlute I used the Coalition app and it let me submit the essays
The last words will be cut off when they view it.
@BB1313 even in the Coalition application?
You should be able to review what the schools will see in PDF format before you submit or you access it after you submit.
@LoveTheBard Yes, I reviewed it and my full essay is there.
I think you’re okay then.
