I am interested in going to Fordham if I get decent $$. Do you think a diversity statement would change my scholarship potential at all? I am all set with my PS, addenda, etc. right now (and my LSDAS file is complete) and thus could apply right now. On the other hand, I could wait to apply until the end of next week when I will probably have a DS written up for a super-reach app.

Basically would applying early or a DS be the most beneficial to my Fordham app?

If its matters...I am Indian (in the sub-continent kind of way).
