My Why Penn essay was way too long at first. It wouldn’t even fit into the text field on the online application, so I had to cut it down to 5000 characters, or 800 words, which filled about 1.5 pages size 12 single spaced. Don’t worry about it being too long as long as you make sure you have a lot of good content, and someone else can probably judge that more objectively than you can, so get someone to help you out.
