Research leads are not going to be too picky in terms of what hour you send the application in,
There is no need to worry about the exact deadline. Even if you send in your application on the next day, that probably won’t significantly impact your chances of getting picked up by your desired project(s).
Sooner is better, since many research leads will begin composing their teams after the 17th, but there is no hard cut-off point.
Sorry, is there a timezone for when the applications would close by, or is it AoE?
Fair question. You can assume it is AoE.
