Having examined hundreds of theses at the undergraduate and master's level, we find that the word count for an acknowledgments section is typically between 100-200 words.

Author first name last name, Book Title: Subtitle (Publisher, Year), Page number(s). 1. Jean Rhys, Wide Sargasso Sea (Penguin, 1997), 34. Author last name, Shortened Book Title, Page number(s).
You might see some people recommend the Acknowledgments section be only one page. Ignore that. This is the only section I will tell you that you can go long if you want. You may only write one book in your life, and if that is the case, then take all the time and space you need to thank everyone who helped you.
