I applied to a few programs because of a lack of funds. I can now pay for some additional programs. Honest opinion: Is it too late to be applying to the bulk of my programs? Do you think most programs have already selected the initial 200-500 from which they will ultimately select a smaller number to interview? I'm asking because if it's really too late, then I can save the money that I borrowed and not waste it.

Dane it is a gamble indeed. the website information indeed says that october is the time when most applications are downloaded. But here is the deal if u have already uploaded all the documents and u have been applying why don't u give it your best shot. decide for yourself. I know I am bloody late but I ain't going to give up. But then I might not have the same constraints as you do. Please think for yourself as finally u have to live with ur decision.

I don't think it is late, I say go ahead, there is a saying that goes like this: The worse effort is the one you don't do....

But here is the deal if u have already uploaded all the documents and u have been applying why don't u give it your best shot. this is the deciding factor! If your docs are indeed all scaned and uploaded then you could have all your info to programs within two days... which is definately not too late! if you haven't sent document to ERAS yet then you have a three week lead time before they are scanned and uploaded... goddluck!
