Depends on who you choose for reviewing your essay. If you give it to someone who has not yet finished their applications, there is a possibility of it being plagiarized. If you give it to someone who has been accepted to their dream school already, they won't be submitting any more applications, so almost no chance of plagiarism. If you give it to a college student, almost no chance of plagiarism. Same thing for adults whose kids are already in college.

Hope this helps!

What makes you think your essay is plagiarized? If you wrote it yourself, it should not be plagiarized. If you have any doubts, use online tools that check texts for plagiarism.
