Transfer essay.

I am currently enrolled in a University (in upstate NY), planning to transfer to schools is NYC. I am planning to use my intro from my old essay (the one I am enrolled in now) for the transfer essay, is it a good idea?

It’s fine. But keep in mind the transfer app essay is very different than the college app essay for freshman admits.

You’re a different person than you were when you wrote that essay. Make sure it still applies.
