Contacting Second Potential Advisor


Question

Posted

I contacted a potential advisor at a school of interest, and she replied that she is not taking PhD students next year. So I am now having to contact a second potential advisor in the same department. My question is: can I use essentially the same email? For different schools, I have been essentially recycling an email template and just tailoring certain parts to specific programs and profs. Is there any chance that these two profs would compare notes and realize that the two emails are the same? If so, would this reflect poorly on me?

I would change your email. They'll notice, and you should really mention professors' specific research in your emails anyway.
