when it comes to application season, it\u2019s all about timing. it can be tempting to use extra time to edit essays and resume for the millionth time, or to ask for just a few<\/em> more people\u2019s input on your materials. while being thorough will serve you well, you still want to get your application in as soon as you can. submitting your application materials early can mean you’ll have a number of advantages over other candidates in the application pool. in this post, we review the top four benefits of an early application.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

1. opportunity to get ahead of rolling admissions<\/h2>\n

many degree programs practice rolling admissions, meaning admissions officers will review files as they come in on a first-come, first-served basis. applying early will ensure that there are plenty of seats to fill in the class \u2013 so admissions officers will likely be more lenient about application flaws. as seats fill up later in the application cycle, admissions will become more competitive.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2. earlier admission decisions<\/h2>\n

\"reason-submit-applications-early-1\"most students find the period between submitting applications and receiving a final admission decision to be entirely nerve-wracking. after all, you just want to get on with planning your life \u2013 identifying the best program amongst your acceptances, figuring out which city you\u2019ll be moving to, which school sports team you should be rooting for, and the like. submitting your applications early on will make it more likely to get a quick response from schools. while an early decision isn\u2019t guaranteed, particularly for schools that don\u2019t practice rolling admissions, there\u2019s still a possibility.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3. priority consideration for scholarships or campus housing<\/h2>\n

at some schools, getting your application in early can mean a better chance at specific scholarships and choice campus housing. these are two great incentives that schools offer to early applicants, in part to encourage students to beat the application cycle surge.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

4. less stress \u2013 and more time!<\/h2>\n

\"reason-submit-applications-early-2\"we don\u2019t have to tell you that applying to schools and programs is stressful and time-consuming \u2013 you\u2019re probably well aware at this point. there comes a time when another round of essay edits or resume reviews probably just won\u2019t do anything more for your application. when that time comes, it\u2019s better to simply submit your materials and leave the rest to the admissions officers. doing so early will give you more time and energy to focus on your schoolwork, job, or personal commitments \u2013 which we\u2019re sure would be a welcome change of pace!<\/p>\n
