<p>Hey everyone,</p>
<p>The UC website says that the deadline is 11:59pm on November 30.</p>
<p>However, is this 11:59pm according to California time (PST), or according to whatever time zone the applicant is in?</p>
<p>I'm asking this because I'm an international applicant from Australia, so it makes a significant difference. (11:59pm California time is 6:59pm the next day in Australia)</p>
<p>Thanks! I would really appreciate if anyone could help me out. :)</p>
<p>Sorry, I don’t know the answer, but I had to respond because the question made me laugh. My son asked the same exact question and of course as a parent my answer was “why are you planning to submit at the last minute? Get it done today!”</p>
<p>I bet it is local Cali time, but I don’t know for sure. I do know that the system gets bogged down every year near the deadline, so please be careful…</p>
<p>Good luck to you!</p>
<p>Thanks :)</p>
<p>Does anyone know the answer to my question though?</p>
<p>According to PST.
I had some silly east coast friends who submitted in 2:58am and went fine.</p>
<p>Official… it’s PST</p>
<p>Also, deadline extended 24 hours for those who create an account before midnight tonight.</p>
<p>Oh wow! That’s great. Source? @YZamyatin</p>
<p>log in to your app; it is right there at the top…</p>
<p>"Do not send transcripts or letters of recommendation unless specifically requested by a campus.</p>
<p><strong>IMPORTANT</strong> Please carefully review all your COURSES, GRADES, and PERSONAL STATEMENT for accuracy before beginning the submission process.</p>
<p>If you started your application prior to 11:59pm PST, November 30, you will have until 11:59pm PST on December 1 to complete the submission of your application for fall 2015 admissions."</p>
<p>Emphasis mine…</p>
<p>I assume everyone sees the same thing when they log in…</p>
<p>Thanks 
</p>
<p>@YZamyatin I see this too, but before logging in it says something like, “tick tock applications are due November 30th.” Can anyone confirm that the extension is not just an error? </p>
<p>No chance you’ll get clarification from the school on a Sunday evening (good luck getting a human on the phone Monday-Friday for that matter). I think you need to take the announcement at face value.</p>
<p>With that said though, when my son showed me the announcement I told him not to even dream of taking an extra day. He is all submitted for better or worse. </p>
<p>Good luck to all!</p>
<p>well once you submit, as long as its before the final deadline, can you edit anything? </p>
<p>I don’t think so.</p>
<p>The announcement says: “Please carefully review all your COURSES, GRADES, and PERSONAL STATEMENT for accuracy before beginning the submission process”. I’m assuming that this means you can’t edit after you’ve submitted.</p>
