say the deadline for applying is Jan 1, 2011; does that mean I have to submit my application BEFORE Jan 1, as in click on the submit button on or before 11:59pm on Dec 31, or ON Jan 1, as in click the submit button by 11:59pm on Jan 1?

also whatever your answer is - is this universally used by all schools?

thanks :D
