Hello all,
Quick question. For REA, Stanford says that the application is due October 15th (including the full common app, essays, etc) plus the arts video.
So do they mean at the end of the day on the 15th? Or the night of the 14th at the latest? The reason I ask is because we will be out of town on the night of the 14th and on a plane coming home late, which means we either have to submit it on the 13th then. OR do we still have the 15th still to work on it?
That is a pretty important decision to make. I would not take the word of someone posting on this website. I would call admissions and ask for the name of the person giving you the answer if they say the end of the day on the 15th.
Google is your friend. Here are the instructions:

The bottom of page one indicates by 11:59 pm on the date indicated. Which is, as you stated, October 15th for REA.
With that in mind, I am not a fan of waiting until the 11th hour. Things can go wrong with technology, uploading, etc. I would submit on the 13th - or earlier.
