McCombs employs a rolling admissions process - meaning all applications are generallly reviewed in chronological order according to the date they were completed, and are not grouped into periods or "rounds".
It is advantageous to submit your application as early as possible within each round to both show your commitment to McCombs (thereby increasing McComb's yield numbers) and to avoid losing your spot to a similar candidate from the same demographic, country, or professional group.
