If I use my essay that won an essay contest as one of my college essays, is it considerered plagiarism or something?
cuz it's the best essay I've written and i like it a lot
It's not plagarism, but you probably can't use that essay in any other *contest*. I know there are laws against that. If the essay was published, you could possibly have more of a problem with copyrights and such. It's still your intellectual property regardless, so I'd use it.
