Rolling Admissions benefit?

Applying to College
1

<p>Is it to a student's benefit to apply early in a school with rolling admissions if the gpa is higher than what is required by the school, but the ACT is lower/borderline?</p>

<p>Do admissions staff see an early application as a sign that the student is extremely interested and look more favorably on the student than if she waited and got her application in by the deadline?</p>

<p>I’ll give an example of a university respected on this site.</p>

<p>Tulane.</p>

<p>I’ve read about people with 4.0s and 2200s on the SAT applying late and getting waitlisted. However, people with 3.0s and 18-1900s on SAT getting in with substantial scholarships. Why? Because they applied early.</p>
