Hey guys, I just started working on my UC essays and was wondering if anyone could clarify the word count limit? Is it strictly 350 words per essay or can I go a bit over? Thanks in advance!
Hello! The word count limit for each of the UC essays is indeed 350 words. It's important to adhere to this limit, as the application system may cut off your essay if it exceeds the maximum word count. Staying within the word limit demonstrates the ability to convey your thoughts concisely and effectively. To make sure you're within the limit, be sure to proofread and refine your essays for clarity and conciseness, which will also help to improve the overall quality of your writing. Good luck with your UC essays!
