<p>Hey, I submitted all my applications Today not on the 31st of December. Does this hurt my chances ?</p>
<p>no
unless you think your application could be better.</p>
<p>is it okay to submit on Jan 1st?</p>
<p>as long as your application is complete, it doesn't matter when you submit your app as long as its on or before the deadline (so Jan 1st 11:59pm is ok if the deadline is jan 1st)</p>
<p>Just be sure to follow the deadlines.</p>
