The deadline for HBS is October 3rd, at "12:00 (noon) Boston time". Yesterday, I submitted my application when the time at Boston was 11:15 AM (I verified it using a world clock). However, my receipt said I submitted at 11:15 AM EST. I don't live in America, but as far as I know, Boston is currently at EDT, and not EST! Could it mean they would think I submitted at 12:15? Has anyone noticed it?

Just out of sheer curiosity, if Boston is currently using daylight time (EDT), then how come EST still means Boston?
EDT refers to daylight savings time and EST refers to standard time, the only difference is the the time of year, we observe standard time during the winter and daylight savings time in the spring

Weird. Thanks! I almost got a stroke about it earlier. I was pretty sure it was their mistake, but it's comforting to know for sure that the terms are used interchangeably.

bb, may I suggest this post to be made a sticky? This might get lost, particularly post R1 deadlines, when R1 folks are active while waiting for decisions and R2 folks are getting their application doubts resolved..

Thanks - we had both the full and part time programs listed. I have removed the part time program to make it less confusing. The dates should match now.
