The Graduate School website says I have to apply before November 1st, but the BMSD website says the deadline is January 1st. Which is it?

We will review all files that are complete by January 1st whether the applicant is domestic or international. You can ignore the November 1st deadline but ensure that all materials reach us before January 1st. Note that international documents and letters can take a while to reach us.
