<p>If you haven’t checked the Yale website, the SCEA deadline has been extended to Nov 2 at midnight due to the winter storm.</p>
<p>Yay for procrastinators. </p>
<p>[Application</a> Deadlines | Yale College Admissions](<a href=“http://admissions.yale.edu/application-deadlines]Application”>http://admissions.yale.edu/application-deadlines)</p>
<p>The website still reads November first.</p>
<p>Near the top of the page there is a notice that says November 2.</p>
<p>Aah, you seem to be correct. Interesting, since I just submitted my SCEA application a few minutes ago…</p>
<p>A pleasant surprise, it won’t affect my application; but good for those in the northeast who may have lost power.</p>
<p>Jesus, what a relief. XD I’ve gone through a little roller coaster in the last couple of minutes because I submitted my Common App at 12:06 and didn’t know if “by November 1st” meant Oct. 31 at 11:59 or Nov. 1st at 11:59. This is good news. Well, I suppose the website would have refused to send my forms if I had missed the deadline, but whew…</p>
<p>I think the original deadline was Nov 1 at 11:59, or it has been historically according my to my research.</p>
<p>A deadline date always refers to 23:59 on the given date in the local time of the school unless specified otherwise. Thus the new deadline is 11:59 pm ET on Nov. 2.</p>
<p>I don’t think the extension is just for Yale, common app sent like an email to my counselor telling her that all Early application deadlines have been extended!!!</p>
<p>^See the sticky thread on the Admissions forum, some extensions are only for applicants in affected areas.</p>
