<p>What is better?
I can fit mine perfectly on one page on single spaced.
What do they prefer though?</p>

<p>According to this, which was posted on a similar thread, [Should</a> an Application Essay Be Single-Spaced or Double-Spaced?](<a href=“http://collegeapps.about.com/od/essays/f/Should-An-Application-Essay-Be-Single-Spaced-Or-Double-Spaced.htm]Should”>Should an Application Essay Be Single or Double-Spaced?), it usually does not matter. However, they suggest double spacing the essay. Plus they recommend a 12pt font.</p>

<p>What is everyone else doing?</p>

<p>I’d double-spaced 12pt because it’s really like the standard way to write any essay in college and high school and whatnot. MLA, APA, whatever is double spaced. So yeah.</p>

<p>Do you indent each paragraph by 1"?</p>

<p>As long as you do not make your text pink with clip art in your essay you will be fine. Indent paragraphs. Just hit TAB. Stick within anything between single and double spacing. Do not over think it man.</p>

<p>Content over formatting is what counts.</p>
