• The LOCAL group policy object is applied first
• Then, the group policy objects linked to sites are applied
• If multiple GPOs EXIST for a SITE, they are applied in the order specified by an administrator
• GPOs linked to the domains are applied in the specified order
• Finally, GPOs linked to OUS are applied

The OU group policy objects are set from the largest to the smallest organizational unit, i.e., first the parent OU and then the child OU.

By default, a policy applied later overwrites a policy that was applied earlier. Hence, the SETTINGS in a child OU can override the settings in the parent OU

Group policy settings are cumulative if they are compatible with each other. In case they conflict with each other, the GPO processed later takes precedence.
