<p>I wrote an essay to win a scholarship. After researching the Common App, I found the essay topic for the scholarship is the same as the topic for the Common App. Am I allowed to use the same essay?</p>
<p>Anyone? I’m not sure if reusing an essay is considered cheating.</p>
<p>You are more than welcome to reuse the essays; applicants do so all the time. Just change the appropriate parts of your essay every time you submit it.</p>
<p>Thanks. I thought so, but I just wanted to be sure.</p>
<p>Can I read your essay please. Send it to me via PM.</p>
<p>Based on your posts, I’m assuming you’re a junior. Why should I PM you my essay? I have to be wary of anonymous online cheaters.</p>
