ioul Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 I'm getting nervous. My SOP would benefit from a fresh read tomorrow. No where on the school web site does it say a time cut off though. Does my application vanish at the stroke of midnight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maeisenb Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Probably midnight tomorrow, whether that is EST or PST (or something else) I couldn't tell you... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snes Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 (edited) I've seen schools specify 5pm but I always assume midnight (as in 11:59pm). I myself will be freshly reading an application tomorrow before hitting submit. (It seems the online app is down right now anyway. Craaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaap.) Edited to add: maeisenb has a point. I would adhere to the school's time zone or your time zone, whichever is earliest. Edited December 1, 2011 by snes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sigaba Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 MOO, I'd be in CYA mode and treat the deadline as COB using the time zones of the programs to which I was applying. My $0.02. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ioul Posted December 1, 2011 Author Share Posted December 1, 2011 Thanks guys. My app is still there, so I'll shoot for COB (4:00 to be safe, hopefully sooner) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imisscoffee Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Holy ****, Berkeley is due so soon. I really want to get this in before the last minute. I'm so afraid to hit send, though, like I'll later realize I sent two of the same transcript or something. Or that I misspelled my last name on my CV.

PhDreams Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Does anyone know if UC schools use PST for their deadlines? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Safferz Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Does anyone know if UC schools use PST for their deadlines? I can tell you that Berkeley does, and the application closed 30 minutes ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhDreams Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 Thanks, Safferz. I applied to both UCLA and Berkeley. I noticed that Berkeley had a countdown on their app; UCLA did not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
