That’s not always true. The head of admissions at one school I applied to last year sent me an encouraging e-mail after looking over my application well before the deadline. I was accepted less than two weeks after the deadline in late December.

Diffferent professors have different ways of handling admissions. If they happen to like looking at applications as they come in, being one of the first to submit can be advantageous.
