fbeckford Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 A few of the graduate schools I'm applying to don't have a SOP word max or even topics that should be included. What would you recommend just to be on the safe side.
GardeningGrad Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 No longer than 2 single-spaced pages. I wrote my SOP and then e-mailed the admins of the programs I was applying to (a few months before the application deadline) to confirm the preferred length of the SOP.
runonsentence Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 My DGS advised us as master's students to write about 1.5, maybe 1.75 at the most. Two pages is too long, he thinks, and one page too short.
