<p>The colleges I'm applying to have a due date/deadline date of January 1st.
Does that mean I can still apply to them on Jan 1st? Or does it HAVE to be in before Jan 1 12:00:00 AM? Thanks!</p>
<p>I’m almost positive that the deadline date refers to the last date you can submit your application, not the date that they stop accepting applications.</p>
<p>A January 1st deadline means that you have until January 1st at 11:59 PM.</p>
<p>I’m not 100% sure, though.</p>
<p>Thank you so much!</p>
<p>octagons is correct.</p>
<p>Yep, just make sure you save some time in case of technical issues.</p>
<p>How about east coast/west coast schools?</p>
<p>Ex: A Californian applying to Harvard has a deadline of January 1st, 9:00 PM.</p>
<p>Am I correct?</p>
