How long should my letter of explanation be?

For my study permit application, I wrote a 900-word letter of explanation. Is that okay?

It should be as long as it needs to be. They're not going to do a word count. You need to be concise, eloquent and avoid redundancy (no blabbering)

I've read that one page is the maximum.

no there is no such limits but keeping it short and on-point will be appreciated by VO, since they have a lot of files to look into. My personal recommendation is 2-3 pages covering all points and keeping the time for reading about 2-5 mins.
