Can I use the same personal statement for application to different universities?

i'm a senior in high school and i was wondering whether or not that would be possible. My personal statement is a "topic of choice" essay, so i WOULD be able to send it to two different places. would that be okay?

Update:

hey hey stop duh'ing me!

just making sure i'm not filed in for plagiarizing or anything like that.

thanks though :]

    Yes it is! Colleges don't share their information. Good Luck!

    I think so just make sure that you modify each essay to the school you are sending it to. Do not include something about Harvard in the essay if you are sending the essay to Yale.

    you aren't any more allowed to jot down 2 different personal statements on UCAS. you want to %. one both Psychology or nutrition. they are slightly different matters. Make your innovations up (sorry, i do not intend to sound like this) yet you won't be able to opt for both. the topics have adjustments!

    I'm sure that would be fine -- they have too many applications coming in to cross-check with other universities.

    Of course you can? What do you think they do -- share the papers among colleges?
