Application deadline dilemma

[Marcus Hollerback]

Hello everyone,

 

I am applying to a few graduate programs that have a deadline of January 1st. No time is specified in the information page and I was wondering if anyone knew whether the materials are due before or after midnight. I could use another day to go over a few things, but I can't make up my mind!

 

Thanks,

 

P.

Before midnight, 11:59pm.

So, before midnight today, 12/31 or tomorrow, 1/1?

Check the program website - they might have a sooner time than 11:59. Like one of my programs merely listed December 10 on the deadline, but it was actually Dec 10 by 8pm.

They don't have a time on the website. I am assuming 5 PM as the earliest possibility, so I will have everything sent by tomorrow morning. i just didn't want to wake up to an expired application! :|

I'd assume 11:59pm on January 1st unless it says otherwise. My first deadline is January 2nd, followed by another deadline on January 3rd, but I just submitted my applications tonight to be safe for those schools. The school with the 1/3 deadline is still waiting on one of my college transcripts, but everything else was complete so I submitted it tonight just to be done with it.
