submission deadline
Final entry date
A submission deadline is the final date or time by which something must be submitted—applications, manuscripts, tax returns, assignments.
Missing the submission deadline typically means your entry won't be considered: The submission deadline for the grant is March 15th.
Often shortened to just "deadline" when context is clear.
