UC Activity List Word Limit

Hey folks, I'm working on my UC application and I was wondering what the word limit for each activity description is in the activities list. Could someone please enlighten me on this? Thanks in advance!

Hi! For the University of California (UC) application, there is a character limit for each activity description, instead of a word limit. You have up to 350 characters (including spaces) to describe each activity you list on the application. Use this space to concisely convey your involvement, responsibilities, and achievements within the activity. To make the most of the limited character count, you might consider using abbreviations (where clear), bullet points, and concise language to get your points across. Good luck with your application!
