<p>hey guys, how long are your 'why colby' response? is it even an essay? or is it a short answer kind of thing? i don't think they ever specified on the length, right?</p>
<p>It really doesn't have to be long. Mine last year was really short (probably a paragraph or two), and I was accepted. Some people though, wrote like several paragraphs. That's really not necessary though, but if you're really interested, I would suggest writing more. At the time, quite frankly, Colby was not my first choice, so I really didn't try.</p>
<p>ok thanks..i ended up doing maybe 7 sentences or so for a full paragraph and frankly i think it was truthful and to the pt, so i'll leave it at that, ha. thanks again!</p>
<p>sure...best of luck!</p>
