<p>if I applied early in say sometime between September through November, and Said Pitt was my number one choice. How would that play in my favor???</p>
<p>That depends. If you are a very strong candidate - great QPA, SAT/ACT scores and class rank, waiting until November to apply would not be a problem. If, however, your SAT scores are less than 600 each in M+CR, I would recommend applying as early as possible - no later than the end of September/beginning of October. For borderline candidates, November may be too late. All of this is assuming you want to attend the main campus. If you would like to attend a branch campus, November would not be too late.</p>
