^Unusual perhaps but not entirely unheard of. Columbia has only one essay as well. I believe what C and D do is to force you to distill your uniqueness and personality into a single portrait. Having multiple essays afford you the convenience of being able to highlight several aspects of your personality while leaving adcoms to fill up the blanks with what they’re forced to presume is good stuff.
