Thank you, BB! It's my honor to be here. I know the application process is both exciting and intimidating, so please do not hesitate to reach out to me or via this sub if you guys have any questions.
Ah, where is my manner? Allow me to introduce myself. Vietnam is where I come from. I have five years of experience in the hotel industry, having held management positions in departments such as sales, marketing, and revenue from boutique to international hotels. I just want to do anything in my power to exceed my customer's expectations and see them in awe. I want to use my MBA to pivot into hospitality consulting while expanding my expertise from hotel to a bigger spectrum - restaurant, tourism, airlines, and cruise lines. In my free time, you can find me either kayaking or practicing my nun-chuck on my rooftop. I'm also a devoted fan of egg-fried rice.
Let's kick-start this sub and this 2023 application cycle!

Hi @peachsnapple1
Thanks for extending support to help us out.
I have a question related to apply to darden.
Is it advisable to apply to early action round or the first round? The probability of getting an offer and scholarship is higher in which round of these two rounds ?

Hi @peachsnapple1

Excellent question! Darden and Fuqua are the two B-schools I know that offer Early Action/Early Decision. In general, I think your question can expand to all b-schools, not just Darden: Which round is the best for me? There is a simple answer for that: as early as possible, if, and only if, you feel you can't improve your application anymore. In other words, you are ready. Do not rush through the application just to make the deadline. Schools also specifically stated that R1 and R2 make no difference, although I wouldn't wait too late as to wait for R3, especially if you're an international student.
In your specific case, Darden, if you are totally ready and done with your application, and Darden is your dream school, then go for EA. That will show them your commitment to the school. If you feel as though you still need some more improvement and will not be 100% ready for the EA, go for R1. I'd say your offer chance will more likely be higher in the EA, considering that your application is done to the best of your ability. Why wait for R1 when you can apply in ED right? Regarding scholarship, I'd say that it is based on the strength of your profile. If you're international, a merit-based scholarship will probably be your default scholarship, and the scholarship amount you will get will depend on many factors: how much the school wants you to go there (if you are admitted), whether are you a minority, how are your stats comparing to other profiles from the same pool, etc.
In short, as long as you're ready, apply early ASAP. You should not over worry about the scholarship, because that's out of your control. The only thing you can do now is to get your application in the best shape possible.
