<p>I am unfamiliar with the college essay process. Where do I get the essay prompts? If it helps, I am a rising senior in the state of Texas. Do I apply through applytexas.org? I want to apply to is UT Austin and maybe the University of Houston. Please help, I don't really know anything about this yet.</p>
<p>Ryan,
Many colleges use the common application. To see an updated list of the colleges that use the common app, check out this link: <a href=“https://www.commonapp.org/CommonApp/Members.aspx[/url]”>https://www.commonapp.org/CommonApp/Members.aspx</a>. On the common app website, you will be able to see the application, which includes the essay prompts. Good luck!

<p>I don’t think its okay if one uses an essay one has written about before.</p>
