Home > (Select - Application Name) > Application Settings > Sections and Questions > (Select - Section Name) > Select Add Question
The Essay Box question type is used when a question’s reply requires a lengthy text statement to be typed (i.e., essay questions). When using the EssayBox question type you can control the length of the reply value entered by the applicant by setting the minimum and maximum word count (e.g., 500 words or less). The Min Word Count and Max Word Count fields display once you select EssayBox in the Type field.
An example of an EssayBox question type as it displays for an applicant is shown below. Note the applicant is provided with text editing tools similar to those he/she would find in Microsoft Word.
