deadline confusion

<p>is the application due midnight between jan 1 and jan 2 or between jan 2 and jan 3? </p>

<p>"She'll be awake, making sure everything runs smoothly until it's January 2 everywhere." makes it seem like it's between jan 1 and jan 2.</p>

<p>"Come back and check here to see if it's still January 2, 2007 somewhere around the globe." makes its seem like it's between jan 2 and jan 3.</p>

<p>any thoughts?</p>

<p>Quit being technical- they want in by 12 YOUR TIME between jan 1 ans 2, or a half hour ago.</p>

<p>chill! i was genuinely confused.</p>

<p>sorry- didn't mean to sound so grouchy. I guess lack of sleep will do that to me. </p>

<p>Good luck-</p>

<p>okay..i've been turning all of my applications in before the midnight between the deadline and the day after. there weren't any problems with my ED application to penn, and it's how i did yale and carnegie mellon, so i'm assuming that that's the way it works. my app will be turned in on the evening of jan 2.</p>

<p>and by midnight, i mean midnight east coast time</p>

<p>Actually, what it says is that "you have until midnight on January 2 -- anywhere in the world." They wait until 11:59 PM on Baker Island time. This translates to 3:59 AM Pacific time, 6:59 AM Eastern Standard Time, and a cool 11:59 AM for all those Greenwichians. This is January 3rd for all those AM times. (And of course, still January 2nd for anyone applying from Baker Island.)</p>

<p>Dannonwater, your post REALLY scared me...It's due today, Jan. 2. I have over 12 hours here on the East Coast :)</p>

<p>But wait, doesn't it mean that it's due on the 2nd of January, 23:58? according to our timezone?</p>

<p>Like right now, I'm in korea. And it's 23:40 of Jan 2nd. Is my deadline in 40min? Or is it really 11:59pm on Baker Island Time?
Sorry... I'm feeling a bit thick in the head today..</p>

<p>11:59 PM, Baker Island Time.</p>

<p>thanks idad for clearing it up :)</p>

<p>The deadline is between January 2 and January 3.</p>

<p>And five people proofread that page before I put it up...</p>
