    If you are applying to the same university, which requires both an SOP and a personal statement, it is wise not to self-plagiarize and share redundant information with the universities. However, you may use portions of the content in the SOP in your personal statement after rewording them. That being said, it is always better to share original and unique content, which assures the universities about your credibility.
