Hello!
I am trying to work on my essay so I can fit it in the AACOMAS format.
AACOMAS says that it needs to be no longer that 3000 characters, but when i pasted my esay which was much longer it actually fit in the box, no error message came through.
Does any one of you know how strict this requirement is?
Thanks
 
Try printing out the application to make sure it's not cut off. I would stick with the requirement though.
 
I had a similiar problem when I imported my personal statement to my application after working on it in microsoft word. The character count between the two software packages seemed to be different. Anyway, I just kept editing and correcting the thing until it finally fit and was submitted. The 3000 character limit is definitely restricting.
