<p>The website only says it is due "by December 1st." Does anyone know if that means midnight tonight, or is it due at the same time as the admission/scholarship applications (11:55 tomorrow night)? I'm guessing the latter, but I'm not sure if I should submit tonight just to be safe.</p>
<p>I too am guessing the second, and betting it on it, since I have yet to do the essays :). Guess we’ll find out in 2 hours or so, but I don’t see why it wouldn’t be, because they use the exact same wording for both.</p>
<p>Yeah, that was my thinking. I would hope they would just have one deadline for everything, but who knows. I only have the good citizenship one left to do, so we’ll see if I get it done tonight haha</p>
<p>It says 12/1/2010 EST, which scares me to think if it’s six minutes…</p>
<p>Dear rjlefty (just kidding :P),</p>
<p>Please be sure to complete and submit your scholarship application for the 40 Acres Scholarship for UT Austin by December 1st. Your two recommendations should also be submitted by this deadline. Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns.</p>
<p>This email was sent to all 40 Acres Scholars Program applicants. If you and your recommenders have submitted all of your materials, please disregard this email.</p>
<p>Thanks,
40 Acres Scholars Program Staff</p>
<p>So should be fine I guess</p>
<p>Wait, did they send that to you?</p>
<p>Just submitted mine, it’s fine, but warning, their system is on EST. so deadline will probably be 10:59 PM tomorrow night.</p>
<p>Phew, that’s good. All I’ve got left is one essay to edit and two sentences to write so it’ll be fine</p>
<p>D submitted hers last night and the site was perpetually going down. Patience grasshoppers! Make sure you click “save and continue”</p>
