Tulane personal essay length?

<p>I have the personalized app thing that has my fee waived and stuff. It suggests that the personal essay be between 250-500. Is than an absolute or would it be okay to have 600 words?</p>

<p>Not an absolute, but I bet you could tighten it to 500.</p>

<p>mine was 700, and I was accepted so. If you love it don’t change a thing.</p>

<p>Well, there you go. End of discussion. LOL.</p>
