I will have 3 more leadership positions starting in August. When I turn in an application for this cycle, can I still include that I will have 3 leadership positions in August? or should I not put it when I apply and just update it in August?

Update in August

Update in August

What if they reject me due to lack of leadership positions before August? Because I am submitting my application in June 🙁

Is it possible that they review my application before August and reject me? Do they still review updated application after they rejected an applicant?

Schools start sending rejection letters around October. They don't review updated applications after they send a rejection

^^ Schools can reject you at any point in the cycle once you submit your app (I got rejected from UCSF in August, while I was still taking summer classes for my post-bacc -.-)

I would definitely update in August, but no guarantees that you won't be rejected within those two months before you can even submit your update...
Good luck!

I don't think that is going to be something that makes or breaks your application. And note that leadership is not limited to things like being president of a club. Even things like volunteering can count.

3 more leadership positions? Meaning you already have some? If that's the case I'm not sure this is something to worry about, if your application gets rejected before August, it won't be because of a lack of leadership experience

Also if you begin those leadership positions in August, how will you be able to update the application with a completed experience when you haven't even begun yet? You can only list completed activities, not future activities

When it comes to leadership positions quality > quantity.
