Hi,
I need your advice on a diffcult situation! I am an international applicant currently residing in Europe. I am planning to visit US in the month of October for business meetings and all. The business sessions will be over in first or max second week of November. After this I am planning to visit different schools.
Now if I am visiting the school! then it is better to give an on-campus interview. But the problem is my application will go to second round thereby disturbing the schedule that I had set earlier to apply to different schools (When I wasn't even aware that some business session might come up). Eventually I will end up putting all my applications in second round, which I want to avoid! I hope you will understand my situation here!
Would appreciate if you can suggest what is the best way to go about it?
Thanks and regards

I'm not sure that I totally understand your question. But, if you're asking if it's okay to apply to all of your schools in the 2nd round, the answer is yes. You don't really gain anything by applying in the first round!
Do what's best for your application chances overall. I think that visiting the schools to learn more about them (and show your interest) is much more valuable than applying earlier.

I apologise for not making my question clear,
I will try again!
I understand that the best time to apply is when you have the best application ready (r1 or r2)
The issue here is bit different, Say I am applying to 5 schools in total, and two weeks back I had a plan of applying to 2 schools in R1 and 3 in R2 in order to better organize myself for different aspects of application i.e. interview over phone/alumni, making a balance between essays and so. Hence I started preparing for those two schools for R1. One of these two application is more than 70% complete and I would say that I am pretty much satisfied with that!
Now couple of days back, I got to know that I need to visit US for business sessions. Hence now I am planning to visit all 5 schools; the school for which application is 70% ready offers interview to everyone! and I can only visit schools in November thereby pushing all my applications to round 2, which I fear (not sure though) might spoil my schedule for other applications!
I wanted your opinion on how to resolve the situation here? Shall I ask for an alumni/phone interview and then visit the school OR I take a chance and put all applications for r2?
I hope I made myself bit more clear this time, would appreciate your comments!
Thanks and Regards,
