Common App Supplement

The Columbia supplement has a 1500 character question: "Please tell us what you find most appealing about Columbia and why."

DD typed her response out on Word and pasted it into the Comm App Supp. When she did a print preview, only about 1000 characters show up. She deleted it and then then typed it in, but again, when she did the print preview only about 1000 characters show up.

Anyone have the same issues and know what to do about it???

Is she using line breaks? Those will push the text below the cutoff. Spaces count as part of the 1500 as well. Just edit it down to fit.
