What does "due December 1st" mean?

<p>A scholarship application I am finishing up is due on December 1st. The website states, "The deadline for high school seniors to apply for entering freshman scholarships is December 1" </p>

<p>Does this mean that the application cut off will be on 12:00 a.m. December 1st or 11:59 p.m. that evening? I would like to have additional teachers proof read my essays before submitting them, and an extra day for this on Monday would be great.</p>

<p>Anyone have experience with this?</p>

<p>Here is a link to the site.

<p>Um…I hate to say this…but why didn’t you have your teachers read this two weeks ago.</p>

<p>It is like,y that they want to receive everything by Monday. Are you even sure your teachers can give YOU this extra time on Monday…? Not much notice to them either.</p>

<p>The deadline should be 11:59pm of 12/1/2014. Best to call the school on Monday.</p>

<p>And if you have any other deadlines this application season…beat not to wait until the eleventh hour to complete the task.</p>

<p>What happens if you go to submit Monday, and you have some computer snafu? You’ve left yourself NO wiggle room.</p>

<p>I’ve seen schools that have 5pm deadlines on the their due dates, so check…and check to see what time zone the deadline is in. </p>

<p>I understand, I procrastinated with this application and it is 100 % my fault. I have already spoken with the teachers that are reviewing them and they are available to look them over. Thank you for the answer. </p>
