The time for submission deadlines in InfoReady is displayed in hours and minutes. The timestamp on the back end of the system also records the seconds. This information can be important for applicant submissions occurring at the deadline because some individuals may interpret the deadline being at either the start or end of the minute. 


For example, 5:00 PM ET is recognized as 5:00:00 PM ET in the system. A submission at 5:00:01 PM ET (5pm with 1 second) will not be accepted by the system. Keep in mind that some individuals may interpret 5:00 PM ET to mean 5:00:59 PM ET, which is NOT how the system is set up. 


If the deadline has passed and you still need to submit application materials, contact the administrator listed on the Details page of the opportunity.
