erythrocyte Posted September 30, 2018 Report Share Posted September 30, 2018 Hello all, In the realm of all the other worries I contrive surrounding applications, I would appreciate if anyone could provide clarification to this question. Last year, my application to UoT was unsuccessful. However, this year, in my ABS essays, I am re-using some of the content from my application from last year, some edits including things I've done since, etc. Since it goes through Turnitin, will it say I am plagiarizing myself? Pls help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this is true, then I don't have anything to worry about lol. I'll send an email in on Monday to give a heads up regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baljinderthecrow Posted September 30, 2018 Report Share Posted September 30, 2018 I would suggest emailing them and denying permission to put your work on turnitin. They said on their website that they will honour such requests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the website though, I think Mitral is right, they only use Turnitin for the BPEs, not the ABS essays. Phew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOWEVER, if you're using personal examples in your BPEs that you used in previous essays, they do recommend letting them know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes just contact them, they will give much better answers than people here. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
