Can you reuse essays for the common app?

Am I allowed to use an essay I wrote for an English class assignment as my common app essay? Obviously there’d be some tweaks but still. Or vice versa? Am I allowed to use my common app essay for an English assignment?

Genuinely do not know.

I think that’s fine, but I wonder if you might run into the issue of it being marked for plagiarism? Did your teacher run it through an anti plagiarism checker? If you submit, you might want to ask your teacher that question. It’s your work, so yes, you can use it.

Yes. I used the same essay for multiple schools.
