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.
