I have the following text:

Request for Admissions No. 1: blah blah blah
Answer:

Request for Admission No. 2: blah blah blah
Answer:

Request for Admission No. 3: blah blah blah
Answer:

Is there any way to set my numbering up so that I get "Request for Admission
No. 4," "Request for Admission No. 6", etc., instead of just the number? Is
there a way to include text in my numbering?

Go to Format Bullets and Numbering. Click Customize on the Numbering tab.
Enter the text in the Number Format box.

Yes, there is.

There is a tutorial here that shows you how--it uses Q as an example but you
can use a text prefix with a number instead.

Either the numbered list or the outline-numbered list method will work for
you.

See http://www.gmayor.com/Text_as_bullet.htm You should just get that text
in with the 30 character limit. If you need more text then you would need to
create an autotext or autocorrect entry including a SEQ field to place the
text and numbers. Personally I would prefer this latter approach.
Save
Request for Admissions No. {SEQ Admissions}
as a formatted autocorrect entry for (say) #num then then type #num to enter
the next block.
