<p>I know in the topics for the UNC essays you can choose to write the long essay on a topic from another school"s application. But does this mean that we can use the commonapp's "topic of choice" as our long essay for UNC?</p>
<p>from what I remember, you can write whatever you want as long as you write a prompt so they know what you’re writing about…</p>
<p>HHS310, that’s what I did last year when I applied! :)</p>
<p>ok thanks. and when you applied, did you just say that you were using the “topic of choice” from the commonapp, or did you make up your own prompt because it asks you to tell them what question you’re answering?</p>
<p>Yeah that’s exactly what I did last year. Go for it.</p>
<p>Yeah that’s perfectly fine. </p>
<p>I would reprint the full prompt that you are answering, though, because they do ask for it.</p>
