October 15th Deadline

Hi, just a quick question. The deadline for med applications is the 15th October, so does this mean that I can send it up til midnight on the 15th October or do I need to send it by midnight on the 14th October?

Ring UCAS and ask.
Or, the FAR more sensible thing ot do would be to send it off earlier!!

Well UCAS advertises that it's help line will be open longer than usual till 9pm on Wednesday night so i would presume that applications can be sent atleast that late else what would be the point? Seriously though getting it in tomorrow would be sensible!

I would have sent it off earlier but my referee hasn't sent me the reference yet and so i'm waiting for it. He is on holiday and not back til tomorrow (the reference is already written but on his PC) night hence why I asked.

Usually, that kind of deadline means they want your application by the end of the day on the 15th. But who knows what UCAS think?!

OK this will sound dumb but I'm trying to send off my application but at the payments it is showing me "choice 1, choice 2, choice 3 and choice 4" but it isn't in the order of preference, its alphabetically I reckon.. Is there a way we can specify a particular uni to be the first choice n so forth?

thanks!

Does anyone who has sent their application completely, (including reference) have a caption when they log on to ucas talking about email verification.
If not I guess thats something i'll need to sort out tomorrow
