The University of Kentucky pushes for a record by logging 26 essay requirements this year. Its enormous number is thanks to a load of school-specific, departmental, optional, honors, and scholarship requirements. Kentucky has a lot of each of them.
Kentucky also accepts the Common App this year, so College Essay Organizer users will see more than twenty essay requirements through their RoadMaps and QuickFinders that don't appear on the Common App site. College Essay Organizer does this for all schools, providing you a direct look at what's really out there.
Using the Common App alone can often leave you with only a partial look at what's really expected of you. Head over to our Common App page to read more about this.

Lake Forest College in Lake Forest, Illinois, has a reasonable amount of essay requirements for its basic application - 4 on their own college application, or 2 supplements if you're using the Common Application.
But I'd bet you didn't know they have 23 scholarship application essays. Allow us to repeat: that's 23 additional essays.
Schools like Lake Forest are not uncommon. CEO's database is full of schools that have four or five basic requirements for admission, but more than ten optional, department-specific, and scholarship essays that come along with the regular application work load.
The University of Puget Sound's admission office steps it up with 22 department-specific and scholarship essays.
The University of Kentucky admission office doesn't mess around either - 16 department-specfic and scholarship essays.
But at CEO, we want you to look at this as a benefit rather than a problem. We do the work for you of searching for and organizing your essay requirements. One of the great perks of CEO is that we turn you on to departments and scholarship money you didn't even know existed.
So when you're using your Essay RoadMap and you see a surprisingly big number of total essays (hello, anyone applying to NYU), just know that we've pointed the way toward some great opportunities.
