<p>Hey everyone. Have any of you done the Telluride TASP summer program or been accepted? I am writing my essays and I feel like they are good quality and have good content, but some of them aren't at the 1500 word maximum. Is that a problem? Thanks for any advice.</p>
<p>Well 1500 is the maximum so I’m sure you don’t need to make it that long. It’s all about the content of the essay, not how long it is. Remember that.</p>
<p>Technically I shouldn’t reply since I didn’t get in, but I got through round 1 but failed round 2 + interview (I knew my STEM transcript was not going to help…). Not a problem, btw…I had like 2 essays at like 800-1000 words, and the 2 longest were around 1400 or so.</p>
