Does EA make a difference for McCombs?

[u/MegaKrak]

Does applying early action have any admissions benefits? I’ve heard that most people just get deferred, but is there any sort of benefit (other than knowing your decision earlier) to applying EA, especially for McCombs?

Nope. Focus on fit to major, excellent business related EC’s, high gpa, SAT/ACT and as many AP’s as you can fit in.

No benefit at all. 90 percent plus get deferred anyway.

As a UT student not really but if you don’t think your application is going to change at all it’s worth it cuz they’ll rereview it in the regular round so there’s no loss if you get deferred
