Hi everyone,
I just wanted to get your thoughts on the latest day u should submit ur ADDSAS application that people would still consider an early submission...and please dont say a.s.a.p, I already aware of that fact. Thanks
 
After October it gets real tough. Especially because many schools have held lots of interviews. My friend submitted November last year but by the time the schools got everything Dec. 1st had already rolled by. By the time she heard back she was interviewing for a waitlist spot. So you have to take all that into consideration. Good luck!

To be considered an EARLY submission I would say by the beginning of July. It takes 6 weeks for AADSAS to send your stuff to schools, so if you apply later in July then schools will not receive your application materials until September. Some schools start interviewing in September or even late August, which means they start reviewing in early to mid August and start sending out the first interview invites in mid to late August. I would say you would be applying late if you submit your application in October or later.

Anyway, you may no longer be an early applicant, but you are far from being late. Just get everything done as soon as you can.
 
The earlier you submit, the longer adcoms will have your application in the pile for consideration and the earlier you will be able to send in secondaries and the earlier you will be able to interview. The longer you wait, the stronger your application will need to be. However, you really aren't late right now. AADSAS is approaching the peak time of submittted applications in mid-late July which means that their processing time will lag a little for your application.
