For some universities, it is very important. U Chicago, for example, probably considers essays more when they accept/reject students than standardized test scores.

The common app and supplemental essays can get subpar applicants accepted into good schools if they are very good. They can make you stand out in an admissions process where there is so little you can control at this point. That said, they can also ruin good applications if the student writes them poorly. So put time into it.
