I can't tell you about this. The person who set the deadline can. Ask the person who set the deadline. You can't trust anything anyone tells you here about this deadline, we are unrelated parties guessing in the vacuum of the internet, from all over the world. Ask the person who set the deadline.

@Mitch No, because if I'm wrong, and OP acts on it (and if they're not going to ask on it, then they wouldn't have asked) then OP gets screwed. That's not fair to anyone involved (and it's also just another way of saying what I already said). If we want to get ivory tower about this, this Q also has nothing to do with English. If you translate it into French, the problem remains. This question is misplaced here; both for OP's needs and for ours.

The expression is ambiguous - and there is no way to resolve the ambiguity:
Midnight marks the beginning and ending of each day in civil time
throughout the world. As the dividing point between one day and
another, midnight defies easy classification as either part of the
preceding day or of the following day. Though there is no global
unanimity on the issue, most often midnight is considered the start of
a new day and is associated with the hour 00:00. Even in locales with
this technical resolution, however, vernacular references to midnight
as the end of any given day may be common.
