Oh No!!! How is this possible!!
Yes it was supposed to be 11:59 PM EST and right now it is 1:12 am EST.
How could they do this? Has anyone got a reply yet? I had completed almost my entire application. Just had to proof read once and submit.
Guys has this ever happened in the past? What will we do?

Since it’s late night in VA, we should get response by evening. I think its just a glitch and should be sorted once office opens.

I am done with my Darden Early action interview yesterday and it was super chill :)

Raven78, You should always apply 1-2 days in advance. Last day might have lot of issues

Thanks for the suggestion dheerajkaushik90
Will definitely keep it in mind for my next applications. Clearly understood the last-day submission risks!

Also, good to hear that your interview went well :)

do you think the deadline was 8th? or 9th as the day starts? I am not sure if I understood it incorrectly. my understanding is - 9th 11:59 PM EST

They've clearly mentioned it as 11:59 PM Eastern, can also check this link as well for confirmation.https://www.darden.virginia.edu/mba/admissions/apply/early-action

Yes it is 11:59 PM EST only. How can they change the deadline?
Btw, Aringo mentions on their website that schools can change the deadline after publishing. Do you think they changed it and will update later on their application page?

For Fuqua, couple of my friends applied and the deadline there also was 11:59 PM EST only, meaning they could submit their applications till 9:29 AM the next day in Indian Standard time.

Did anybody email them at night?

The application was working fine for me until 9 Sep 1230am IST

Now it shows an error

I got a reminder email from them fee days back mentioning 9 Sep as the deadline so I don’t think they’ve changed it.

Ya same here. I was working on the application even post 12:30 AM IST in the morning today and everything was perfectly fine.
Was shocked to see all these posts on this forum suddenly.

Ideally they should right? Although I’ve never heard of a glitch like this during any applications? Anyone here who has seen last day issues like these?

Let’s wait till 5pm IST. I’m sure it’s just a technical glitch.
I think all of us should email them right now anyway.

Hey guys! please don’t panic. There seems to be some technical glitch on the website. The early action deadline is 9th Sept at 11.59 PM EST. As the Adcoms are not available now in the office, we believe they will address this glitch in the morning.

Keep Calm and Keep working on your Darden application. Valar Dohaeris!
