Supplement Essay required?

Colleges and Universities A-Z Boston University
1

<p>Here are the directions:</p>

<p>Essay Section: This section of the application gives you an opportunity to present yourself in a way that grades and test scores cannot. The Board of Admissions uses your essay to determine your ability to organize thoughts and express yourself clearly. Accordingly, we ask that you prepare this work entirely on your own. Please note: All students must submit the short essay listed below.</p>

<p>If you are applying to Sargent College, the School of Education, the College of Engineering, the College of Communication, the School of Hospitality Administration, the School of Management, or any of the accelerated programs (the Seven-Year Liberal Arts/Medical Education Program, the Seven-Year Liberal Arts/Dental Education Program, or the New Jersey Medical School Seven-Year Medical Program), you must submit essay number 1.</p>

<p>Applicants to the University Professors Program must also submit essay number 2.</p>

<p>SO, my question is:
If I’m applying to the College of Arts and Sciences (not under the Professors Program) then I do not write to essay number 1 or 2, right? And since those are the only 2 essay prompts there, I am only required to submit the Short Essay for all applicants, is that correct?</p>

2

<p>I hope so, because that's all I did and I read those directions MULTIPLE times to mawke sure I did not miss anything. </p>

<p>CAS just isn't in that list.. and the Short Answer is a must for all so I would say do that and you're all set</p>

3

<p>correct...</p>

4

<p>hmm.. how short/long should the short answer be?</p>

5

<p>well the limit for the box is 1250 characters</p>
