<p>how long are everyone's why northwestern and research essays? mine are each about a page double spaced size 12 times new roman. i feel like theyre a bit short, but definitely get the point across without cutting off.
a friend of mine is also applying and hers is nearly two pages double spaced... is there a norm?
thanks all and good luck <3</p>
<p>My essay was a page and a half, but I think as long as your point has made it across it will not matter.</p>
<p>My friend wrote 250 words because he assumed there was a limit, but he still got accepted early. I would advise to write no longer than one page (single-spaced 12 pt. Times New Roman) - that should sufficiently allow you to get your point across. Just remember: the best writing is often concise writing! :)</p>
