<p>Hey dudes!</p>
<p>So I turned in my application at 9:14, but on the website it says that I applied LATE. =[
It this a terrible thing?</p>
<p>It is currently November 1st, but I just realized that the common app goes by another time.</p>
<p>Is this going to affect my chances by a lot?</p>
<p>Thanks for any input!</p>
<p>So I'm an idiot and forgot to put the *I in the title.
hahaha</p>
<p>It goes by Eastern time. </p>
<p>Sort of related. I dont actually know if i submitted mine late. I know the deadline is 11:59 eastern, but i turned it in at like 11:59:15... im at that calm before the storm phase, where im freaking out so bad i dont know how to react. does anyone know if i made the deadline or not?</p>
<p>Click yale on commonapp and it tells you the days you submitted everything..</p>
<p>I read on Common App a few hours ago that they understand if you're in a different time zone. However, thinking back, I thought I read also that it operates completely on EST. Call or contact them somehow and ask whether they could consider it in on time since it still is Nov. 1 where you live.</p>
<p>Haha. Thanks. I hate how everything usually operates on EST. I live on the West Coast so I always have to pay close attention to these things for everrytthingg. The Olympics? So excited that so many sports were going to be live, then I start watching and I realize its live for east coast people and the news spoiled everything for me. everything.</p>
<p>And sorry, I totally posted in the wrong section. Didn't mean to leave a comment on Yale. I just searched for existing threads related to mine but forgot to check which part of the forum they were under.</p>
<p>umm, related question, yesterday it said submitted 11/1/08, and today it says downloaded 11/2/08, so is it on time, or late?</p>
<p>If it says you submitted on 11/1, I think that would be on time...
I'm glad that I live in EST or I would have been so doomed.</p>
<p>It's no time. The downloaded 11/2/08 is just telling you that Yale received the application and supplement.</p>
<p>I submitted mine 1 minute late because i had some error message with the CEEB code and my computer was automatically back on eastern standard time form daylight savings mode.. so my computer said 11:00pm when I submitted it.. but commmonapp said 12:01 AM</p>
<p>I submitted my app on November 1, but it downloaded on November 2, so I panicked and contacted an admissions officer. She said that they are accepting apps until November 4, so an app that downloaded a few hours too late should be fine</p>
<p>They don't start reading these things right away... so not having it submitted right on 11/1 is not going to hurt you... relax</p>
<p>why would anyone wait until 11:59 to turn their app in on the last day?!?!?!
isn't that cutting it a little close?</p>
