NYCBluenose Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Hi all, Does anyone know exactly what time the deadline to accept offers is on April 15th? I'm accepted at program X, but have been waitlisted at program Y. Program Y has told me that their decision might well come at around noon or 1 on April 15th. Is this technically after the deadline? I'm worried that, worst case scenario, I could wait until the afternoon of April 15th, only to be rejected by program Y and have my offer at program X rescinded for having missed the deadline. Many thanks for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeoDUDE! Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Why don't you ask your program to allow you to make a decision on April 16th? Then you won't have to worry about time. Mechanician2015 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jailbreak Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 I'd take it to mean 11:59 pm on April 15. NYCBluenose 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qualiafreak Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 I agree with jailbreak. But realistically I plan to make all my decisions during business hours so schools have chances to move down the wait list. Still noon or 1 should be fine.

twentysix Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 (edited) You mean 11:59 pm EDT on April 15?? No 11:59 pm in American Samoa. (that's about 7am in NYC on the 16th) Edited April 14, 2015 by twentysix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpiccolo Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 I have one school that said to accept or decline their offer specifically by 5 pm Central time. My other offers just say no later than the 15th so I'm going with no later than 11:59 pm in each school's time zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
