Does anyone know if the regular decision deadlines are due by a specific time on the deadline day? Trying to avoid last-minute stress and want to confirm if it's midnight or some other time.
Most colleges specify that application materials must be submitted by 11:59 PM in the applicant's local time zone on the deadline day. This usually applies to all components of the application including essays, transcripts, recommendations, etc. That being said, it's best to avoid waiting until the last moment due to the risk of technical glitches or internet issues.
Therefore, starting and completing your application well before the deadline is advisable. It not only gives you enough time to thoroughly review your application but also helps you to avoid the stress of last-minute submissions. Best of luck with your college application process!
