<p>I know that there is no actual limit in the online version of the application, but how long should the short essay be? It's the one that asks "In the space available discuss the significance to you of the school or summer activity in which you have been most involved."</p>
<p>This one has me kind of stumped as well, as to the length. I think I will probably make mine around 250 or so words, but again it’s at your discretion, just nothing terribly long I would assume is the rule of thumb.</p>
