<p>First the bad news.
Eeeeeh… The way you think it should work is not necessarily the way it will work. A Web site has no 100% reliable way of determining what time zone you’re in, so there has to be a set time regardless of the user’s time zone. And by the design of commonapp.org, it’s up to each college to decide what its actual deadline (beyond which applications cannot be submitted without special permission from the college) will be. So the way you’d like it to be just isn’t the way it is.</p>
<p>Now the good news.
Yes.</p>
