hi,
My profile is as below
24/Indian female/700/B.Tech/39 months of work-ex
Does applying to Emory in early (round1) than the priority (round2) round has any advantages w.r.t below points
a) chances of getting admission
b) chances of getting scholarship
Applying in any school in the earlier round is an advantage.
The school thinks that it is few of your top choices and hence you are applying.
You may have a smaller pool with which you compete in the earlier rounds. The skeleton of the class is being formed in the earlier rounds, so you have a better chance.
With regards to scholarship, it goes without saying that the better the earlier.
However one cannot compromise on the quality of essays, so apply whenever you feel that your essays sound the best. Being an international applicant, R1 and R2 should be your target.
All the best.
