Are you sure the PS needs to be less than 4500 characters with spaces?
I thought it was 4700... last year's application said 4700 characters with spaces....
Which is it for sure?
 
It's 4500 characters.

Last year, as solstice said was also 4500 characters.

I hope this year the limit is not <4500 characters 😱 👎 👎 👎

how does the character limit work?

Are you going to be able to have line breaks, ie a new paragraph. Or is everything going to be a wall of text essentially when we paste it in.

And yes I am hoping the limit stays at 4500. I worked for weeks hammering out my statement and getting things to be just below 4500.
