How many words does the PS have to consist of? In other words, is there a minimum requirement? One paged single-spaced? Two pages single spaced? HelP!

It varies by school. Do the research and use appreqs.com.

Thanks for the website. I'm looking at it now. I'm still not very clear. Is this 2 pgs, 2-3 pgs, 4 pgs double-spaced or single-spaced? Thanks guys..

Make it 2 full pages of 11 or 12 point font double-spaced unless the application specifically says otherwise, which it probably won't. Berkeley lets you have 4 pages, I think U Washington(?) sets a 500 word limit, but other than that I can think of no schools where 2 pages double spaced is not the credited response.
