A very quick, yet important question.

Deadline: 1/1/2010 means that I have to turn it in before that date right? So 11:59:59 12/31/2010 would be the last second before cutoff.

Got a hit on yahoo answers, but I need to make sure.

It depends what it is. Usually if a deadline only specifies a date then that means any time on that date.

Online submission day of is fine. So 1/1/2010 at 11:59 works.
Postmarked means you mail it by 5 pm when Post Office closes. PO doesn't work on New Years Day though, so not an option.

Hello, fellow procrastinator

Also, make sure to check the time zone of whatever you're doing. Like, the deadline might be Eastern Standard Time.

Aha. Thanks.

For clarification, it's the common application. Had a lot of crap during my senior semester...

If anyone else is doing their commonapp, can you tell me why I have a red downward arrow on my payment when I just submitted payments?

Oh, what are you doing on TL muchabi XD

Thanks =D

I'm not sure why I'm either.

Payments take a while to register, but when you wake up in the morning it should be registered fine. As long as you submit them before deadline, it's all good.

(I hope)

Probably around $100? It's not that much.

Applications cost 60-75 for me as an international applicant, but with the SAT stuff, and the number of colleges I'm applying to (I had an average number but my mom made me apply to 4 more).

Time to work on those applications!

I suggest you not wait for the payment to register. For the schools that require payment before turning in the app, just select the check option for payment, and then it will be counted as paid.

lol j/k <3


Actually it means you're supposed to turn it in on 12/29/2009. Because 30th and 31st are weekend, and no one works on the 1st.

Better submit your apps a couple hours before the deadline - the commonapp always dicks itself over during the last few hours of common deadlines like Jan 1st. Don't think they can handle all the people who submit their stuff at the last minute. Plus, sometimes their document upload thing screws up and rejects your files for no reason, forcing you to wait a couple hours before you can actually upload your essay.

It's not too bad though, I think colleges recognize that there are these sorts of problems with the commonapp, and won't immediately reject an app that's been submitted an hour or so after the deadline. Of course, it won't look good either. But I've heard of many people who've been accepted even though their app was late.

Says that the applications that are due on 1/1 have been submitted; since next to 'payment' there is no deadline, I assume it will be ok.

If not I'll have to yell at someone.

NOW it's time for me to work on my 1/2 deadlines LOL but I think ima play some HoN so I can relax a bit.

ASDF painful process.

WOO COLLEGE APPS! I submitted all of mine like 1/2 a day early just to be safe. My friend was telling me about how he was having trouble uploading his essays and shit because the common app site was getting too much trouble.

PAYMENTS ARE USUALLY DUE AT THE SAME TIME AS THE SUPPLEMENTS! i think..
