Re: IESE early decision

I applied to ED this year, however to my knowledge it is not binding.
The fact that you’ll have your decision super early, and will not have other schools yet will mean you cannot wait for other school’s decisions to come in.
Well you can but you will have to pay.
Your 3000 and 7000€ down payments are also earlier.
So: you’ll have less competition, sure. If you have a popular profile it will not be fillled yet, but you’ll have to pay your non refundable fees earlier. If you then opt for another school that’s money lost.
Best only to do ED if the school is your clear favourite, and you know you will go there over any other school if you get accepted.
Note the new applications will only go live around June (with the essays questions)
