Hey guys so I submitted my UMich application yesterday at around 11:30 PM central time (I’m from Chicago). Today, I checked the common app to see if the school downloaded my app, however, it actually says that the application was SUBMITTED on February 2nd! I’m really scared right now because I turned it in before 12AM and even received an email saying my app was successfully submitted. Should I contact the admissions office to confirm if they have my application / explain myself should they not have it? Thanks!
You should be fine.
Shaun since you got a confirmation like Billcho said you should be fine but if you want extra insurance just email admissions and let them know what happened and that you got confirmation and make sure you are fine so you don’t have to think about it anymore
For future reference, Michigan is on eastern time. So 11:30 pm central time is 12:30 am the next day eastern time. Sounds like they accepted it, though.
The schools usually consider the later of the applicant or school time zone unless it specifies by the school.
