General When should LOR be submitted in a rolling based application?

[Question]

Hi all,

I’m applying for a summer research program, and the application page says that they need 4 things from applicants (resume, cover letter, courses, and contact info for recommendations). It’s a rolling admissions process from mid November to March, and i was wondering if I would benefit from submitting early even though the actual letters of recommendation are going to be sent later in the year (as long as I submit contact info for the two recommenders). Would my application still get reviewed early as long as I submit everything on my part asap?

I imagine for a program like this they're not going to review until your whole application is complete, but as you're asking about a specific program we're honestly just guessing here. If you're really curious you should ask them.

I agree. Go to the source and ask them.
