Yes that’s what was bothering me. And I remember reading a 5pm deadline for some school, not able to remember which one exactly.

Hey Nikhil,

It comes up when you click on the 'i' icon on the Welcome page of the application

Just to play it safe, I advise you to submit it as soon as you can

In the meantime, you can drop them an email as well but you may hear back only on Monday.
