<p>I was wondering when people usually send their apps in for EA/ED? Mid-October? I know people who already have--I'm pretty much done, I just need to trim and cut down my essays, just worried that I'm really far behind most other people.</p>
<p>Also, do they really see the people who send in apps earlier in a better light? Or people who actually send things out on Oct. 31st in a worse light?</p>
<p>I sent mine in a 1-2 weeks ago. I don't think it matters as long as you are in by the deadline.</p>
<p>My son's ED deadline last year was Nov. 15. I think he submitted his app on the 13th. As long as you're in by the deadline, all is good. There's no advantage as far as admissions decisions go to getting it in 2 weeks early or a month early or whatever.</p>
<p>esgee: your worries are unfounded. Just get them in when you feel they are complete. The adcoms have tons to read and it'd be insane to assign a strength or weakness to when the app was submitted.</p>
<p>Thanks so much for your input--I definitely feel more relieved.</p>
<p>wow i haven't even started any of my EA apps, I was waiting till after I was done taking SATs (hopefully for the last time in my life!)</p>
<p>wow...i guess all i need more is a few short answers and recs! yay</p>
