<p>just out of curiosity, do colleges use plagiarism softwares on the application essays one writes?</p>
<p>They don’t but they’ll certainly remember unique essays that they read. </p>
<p>When you’re actually in college however, professors often ask for a digital copy of your essay as well as a handwritten one. The digital copy is then processed through an application that detects plagiarism.</p>
<p>I’m applying to the UC’s, preferably Berkeley and Davis, do you think it is a good choice?
I am an International student applying for engineering</p>
<p>^Is what a good choice? Plagiarizing?</p>
<p>@glassesarechic, I was referring to the choice of colleges</p>
