When does the admissions committee read a candidate’s RISD/PLME supplements?

I’m not sure I understand your question. Don’t you submit everything at once? I think your application is considered incomplete if you haven’t submitted the supplemental essays, and wouldn’t be read at all until those come in.

My understanding of the process is that admissions readers get the whole file – essays, too – and look at everything at once. I am not as familiar with how the PLME and Brown/RISD program work, though. But I don’t know why they wouldn’t read everything submitted.
