One of the admissions essay prompts and the prompt for the Terry scholarship are very similar.
“Describe a circumstance, obstacle or conflict in your life, and the skills and resources you used to resolve it. Did it change you? If so, how?” and
“Describe a significant setback, challenge or opportunity in your life and the impact that it has had
on you.”
Is it okay if my essay for these is basically the same? My intro is a little different based on the prompts but the body is exactly the same. Is this looked down upon or does it not matter. Since its admissions and scholarship are they even read by the same people?
They aren’t read by the same people, so feel free to use the same essay. Feel free to ask my any other questions you have!
