Yes, it is always a good idea to apply via the Early Decision rather than the Regular one. It is because the students see a higher acceptance rate then. 

For the Regular Decision, the acceptance rate is barely 3% and this is much higher for ED deadlines. 

The upcoming admission deadline for Indian students at NYU UAE is Nov 1, 2026,  for its UG courses (ED 1) and for the same, the decision will be released by Dec 15, 2026.

NYUAD is much more selective than most of the Ivy League universities available out there. The typical Ivy League admit rate stays around 3% to 7%

But, for NYU Abu Dhabi, it stays below 3%. For the class of 2029, the New York University UAE acceptance rate stands at 2.9%.

Yes, AUD Dubai does offer full scholarships to Indian students via its AUD Mohammed Bin Rashid Scholarship. The scholarship covers tuition costs either partially or completely depending on the academic excellence level of a student.

For MIT admissions, the type does not matter; what matters are the impact and depth. MIT does not really prefer coding over entrepreneurship. 

However, they look for students with an intense and sustained 'spike' in an area that they're passionate about. 

Given below are the three pillars that Indian students should be mindful of - 

  • Research
  • Coding
  • Entrepreneurship
