Combining essays for Oxford and Emory - is this a good idea?

<p>I know that I can separate the essays for two colleges, or combine them into one. </p>

<p>If I combine them, does it have to be 250 words, also, or can it be
250 +250words =500words?</p>

<p>Also, what do you guys think about combining the two-
do you think it’s a bad idea because they are totally different type of colleges??</p>
