December 31st 11:59 PM or January 1st 11:59 PM?

<p>I personally submitted my application last night because I was unsure of which of those deadlines was actually. However, I have a friend who is under the impression that January 1st 11:59 was the acceptable deadline for Bowdoin applications, and hasn’t turned hers in yet. Can anyone give me some confirmation as to which is the correct time?</p>

<p>The deadline is January 1 at 11:59 pm EASTERN TIME.</p>

<p>However, you are wise to submit it earlier, because even when you think you’ve covered everything, there’s often an unexpected technical glitch or two.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>
