About the deadline of common app

<p>I know that most school's deadline is about December 31th. Is that mean I need to summit all the stuff to the university before that day or I need to summit specific things to university before specific time, the deadline simply tells when is the deadline to sum up all the things you have?</p>

<p>Help~~ Thanks~~</p>

<p>That deadline pertains to items within your control. Often a little leeway is permitted for recs and transcripts, but that varies by school and you should aleays make every effort to get even those items in by the deadline. Most schools post the latest testing dates they accept for each deadline. If you are thinking ahead, the deadline should not be a problem.</p>
