<p>When is the deadline exactly?</p>
<p>3rd January 11.59 pm PST or EST?</p>
<p>I am sure there are some who are still working on the app. Please let me know the deadline - would help procrastinators a lot.</p>
<p>Hey, I was wondering the same thing, but, after reading CalTech’s previous policies on this, I’m going to take an educated guess and say that it’s 11:59 PM PST… so like 3 AM Eastern. You probably should call to make sure though… and let me know too GAAAAH! I would do it, but I have a doctor’s appointment in 30mins. Just woke up. Gah, admissions crap.</p>
<p>Tried calling. They are closed for holidays.</p>
<p>any idea when they resume?</p>
<p>anyone else knows the exact deadline timings?</p>
<p>thanks</p>
<p>spend more time getting your app done and less time on CC :-). just hurry :-)</p>
<p>it should say on the caltech website or on the common app when the deadline is specifically. plan on it being eastern time, so that you get it in early instead of late :-)</p>
<p>Common App runs on Est time, so even though you might (like me) submit it on Jan 3 it says Jan 4, jeeesh thats weird.</p>
<p>I have a similar question about this deadline. I sent the app at 1 am ct, which is 11pm pst. However, i noticed that after an app is sent the status next to the app component changes from in progress to dowloaded. mine says submitted. does this mean caltech did not get app in time? or does it mean they have not downloaded yet?
thanks</p>
