Depends

In most School settings where you are required to write an essay, the teacher or professor will usually tell you how long it is supposed to be for the assignment.

however, the essay can be as long or as short as you would like it if length is not a requirement. let me explain further:

a typical Essay in Middle-School should be three to five paragraphs long, at least five sentences per paragraph, and be between one to two pages.

High school may require five to seven paragraphs, 5+ sentences per paragraph, and be between one-and-one-half to three pages in length.

College essays usually go on until you can prove a point with sufficient evidence. don't be surprised to see 20-page essays, but 5 page essays are not uncommon.

it all depends

Can a thesis statement be two sentences long?

Yes, a thesis statement can be two sentences long. While following a "formula" for writing, usually one sentence is used. This means that one sentence is usually playing it safe. If you chose to have a longer thesis statement, you are not playing it safe, implying that there is a level of risk involved. To successfully use a two sentence thesis, reread it a few times and make sure it makes sense.
