A question on essays

<p>will cornell find out if i used the same introduction for two essays for two different schools. Is it okay if i use the same introduction?</p>

<p>You can. But if it were me, I probably wouldn’t. If I really like the intro though, I’d probably change it up a little bit, while maintaining the same idea, for my second choice school. Although the schools will likely only read the essay intended for them, they do have the ability to read the essay you submitted for your other school, as far as I know. I may be wrong though.</p>

<p>i used the same essay for pretty much every college i applied to</p>

<p>rh1992, i think he is asking about using the same essay that he did for 2 separate universities. i used basically the same “why architecture” essay, but of course, you do have to change the essay a little bit to make sure it responds to their prompt. if your intro is able to be used for any essay, i would try to customize it to fit the specific school</p>
