WUSTL Supplemental Essay 2018-19

What is the topic for this year’s WUSTL Supplemental?

If I’m not mistaken, WUSTL doesn’t require any supplemental essays. I got in ED 2018 and I don’t remember writing one.

I went to an info session and they said they’re adding one. I looked online and there hasn’t been a prompt yet so I’m not sure

It says the topic on the Common App once you’ve added WUSTL to your application. The supplement is specific to your area of interest.

^EDIT: apparently the specific topic hasn’t been released yet, but the school has said that it will be related to whatever you are hoping to study.

I found the topic on WUSTL’s admissions website. There’s one for general and another if you’re applying to the beyond boundaries @JemmaSimmons

The prompt is on the Common Application (if anyone was still wondering). However, on the Common App, it says the max length is 300 words, but one of WashU’s blogs said 250, and other websites say 500 words.

Does anyone know which one it is? Thanks!

@aatd2 I would keep in the range of 250 (WashU website) to 300 (CommonApp)
