Why UChicago? Word Limit/Read?

I know UChicago has said somewhere that “no more than 500 words” are required for the “Why UChicago?” essay. That being said, do you think around 250 will be okay? I love UChicago but don’t want to sound like I’m reiterating reasons off of brochures/pamphlets.
Would anyone who has had experience with this mind reading my essay?
