The "Basic Application Addendum Form" has a bunch of Qs about former military experience, if any, SAT scores, etc, but no essays. The "Personal Statement Form" has the 1 required essay.
The prompt (bolding and underlining is USUHS's) is:
*PERSONAL STATEMENT:* Be thoughtful and thorough; the Admissions Committee takes great interest in your statement.
*FOLLOW THESE DIRECTIONS:* This form is _primarily_ intended as your instrument to tell the Committee in Admissions about _your specific interest in USUHS for your medical education and to explain your motivation for military medicine_ and something about your experience or familiarity with the military services. In addition, you may expand your AMCAS statement and tell us whatever you would like the Committee to know about you. Be creative and concise in your comments. Please type *double-spaced* and do not exceed the space provided. If you are unable to type directly on the form, feel free to print on a separate sheet and paste (physically) in the space provided.
