Professor Essay word limit?

<p>any one know what the word limit is? I can't seem to find it! all i see are a few lines provided on the paper app.</p>

<p>any help would be much appreciated!!</p>

<p>Last year it was 300 characters.</p>

<p>yeah if you go on commonapp.org and then look up penn's supplement it will show you. but yeah i also think its like 300 characters, which is rather short.</p>

<p>Errr... on the common app it says "1000 characters" left for me!</p>
