Question about common app.

Colleges & Universities Cornell University
1

<p>Hi everyone I had a question. I want to do “topic of your choice”. 2 questions

  1. First can I use an essay from another college (i had a really good one).
  2. If so where do I put the question or the type of topic? Like it says topic of your choice but admissions will be confused most likely… </p>

<p>Also In cornell supplement, do I have to submit the common app to access it? I really am wondering to see if I have to do extra stuff.</p>

<p>thanks!</p>

2

<p>Oh and I am applying to college of engineering if that matters at all.</p>

3

<p>Ok nm I read the supplement (for some reason couldnt find it…). And now I am just wondering about question 1 and 2.</p>

<p>If I can remember correctly:</p>

<ol>
<li><p>Yes you can use the essay from the other college, just make sure to put in ‘CORNELL’ instead of the other college haha that happens to people.</p></li>
<li><p>I don’t think that you put the topic in the common app: you can title your essay and that can be your topic, and THEN put the whole thing in the common app text box.</p></li>
</ol>

<p>Yeah, it’s not like… what was it, Penn or JHU or some app like that, you have to make up your own creative question blah blah.</p>

<p>Ok thanks a lot guys. I am wondering again though, if i send the common app to many schools how can i put each school’s name individually?</p>

<p>you can open up a new app for each one. do the copy, open thing. then you can do them all separately.</p>
