Compose your essays in a word document outside of the online application. Once your essays are finalized, copy and paste them into the text boxes provided in the online application. Your session will timeout after 45 minutes of inactivity, so please save your work accordingly.

Your essay should be composed in paragraph format, not as numbered responses to the questions in the application.

There is a 7,000 character limit (including spaces) for the Statement of Purpose Essay. This is approximately 1.5 pages, single-spaced in a word document. The two Community Impact Essays (Building Mutual Understanding Essay and the Follow-on Service Project Proposal) have a 3,000 character limit each. The optional Critical Need Language Award essay has a 2,000 character limit (including spaces).

Do not format (i.e. bold, underline, italics) your essays in the word document because your formatting will not transfer to the online application.

Ensure that your essays address the prompt/theme.
