So I’ve been working on my transfer application to get in to UF for a bachelors in English. I’ve been having trouble with the word/character limit though. in the application it says to write my statements of intent in 200 words (underlined). everytime I try to get it exactly 200 words I always hit the 1000 character cap though, so right now my statements are currently 174 and 179 instead of 200. Should I keep trying to condense my essays somehow to reach the 200 limit or should I just go ahead and turn it in? or do they care more about my classes and GPA? (because I currently have a 4.0 gpa with only one W from Santa Fe, AND I’m going to be graduating with honors this December)
What ever happened? I am having the exact same issue…
