Question about Why Penn?/Huntsman Essays

<p>So for the Why Penn essay, when they say "contribute to the larger Penn community, what exactly do they mean? Do they mean through community service or what I will add to the school? I just wanted some clarification.</p>

<p>Also, how long is the Huntsman supplement supposed to be? I do not believe they explicitly mention a word limit.</p>

<p>Thanks in advance!</p>

<p>My Huntsman essay was about a page and a half–although I know some people hit around two pages. I think for Why Penn they are referring to what you contribute to the school, although the topic is pretty broad so you can write about nearly anything.</p>

<p>I’ve talked to the Huntsman director and they really don’t want super long essays (although mine was fairly long anyway). If you can say what you want to say in a page, that’s the best. And yea, Why Penn can be answered in a couple of ways.</p>

<p>we talking about a page single spaced or double spaced here?</p>
