What time are the November 1st applications due? Clarify....

Applying to College
1

<p>Many colleges require application to be sent by November 1st to be eligible for either Early Action or even regular decision. My question is, do they need to be submitted by 12:00am (technically Nov. 1st) following the date of October 31st, or is the deadline actually any hour on the day of Nov. 1st?</p>

<p>For example:</p>

<p>University of Florida

[quote]
Freshmen
The freshman application deadline is November 1. Please submit the completed online application no later than 12:00 am (midnight) Eastern Standard Time to be considered on-time.
Freshman applications received after November 1 will receive a decision on a space-available basis only.

<p>would this be due in less than 12 hours today or is it due in less than 36 hours?</p>

11/1/09 is the only date shown on the common app deadline. Again is this due in less than 12 hours or less than 36 hours? The common app doesn't mention a specific time.</p>

<p>Can anyone clarify this for me?
Thanks

<p>Unless the college specifies otherwise, a November 1 deadline means that the application has to be submitted some time before November 2. So any time on November 1 works, although it’s obviously not a good idea to be clicking the button at 9 seconds to midnight.</p>
