<p>the deadline is the 1st, i submitted it at a few minutes after 9, and then it said on the common app site that i submitted it the 2nd because it was a few minutes after midnight east coast time. was the deadline for nyu east coast time? it did not occur to me that i would not have until midnight my time. if the deadline was east coast time, do you think they will accept it? do you think they will understand if i tell them i didnt know? it was only 5 minutes after nine</p>
<p>From what I have heard, deadlines are based on the timezone that the school is in. Since NYU is on EST, that means 1pm EST. Check College Admissions board for time issues</p>
<p>If it was “accepted”, I’m sure you’ll be fine. Though they WANT them by their deadline, EST…I’m sure most schools will make that allowance. My guess is that you wouldn’t have been able to submit otherwise (this is what happened when my D had a teacher not send a rec in on time…she was just “shut out”).</p>
