Are these two essays asking the same thing?

<p>Many students decide to apply to Emory College based on our size, location, reputation, and yes, the weather. Besides these valid reasons for making Emory College a possible college choice, why is Emory College a particularly good match for you?</p>

<p>Describe the unique qualities that attract you to the specific undergraduate College or School (including preferred admission and dual degree programs) to which you are applying at the University of Michigan. How would that curriculum support your interests?</p>

<p>Could I possibly answer them similarly? And are they practically asking the same thing?</p>

<p>They are asking generally the same thing: Why do you want to go here? But I assume your reasons for picking these two schools aren’t identical (they are fairly different schools, after all), so submitting the same essay for both with the school names switched isn’t a good idea.</p>

<p>Yes, i wont be switching names but just wanted to be sure since i was getting confused with the wording :D</p>
