Change default time for assignment due dates

[rrudd]

Can I change the default time for when assignments are due to something other than 11:59 pm?

 @rrudd ,

Unfortunately, the default time setting is not configurable.  If you think that this is something that a lot of users could benefit from, I would recommend submitting a feature request:

 @rrudd ‌, there's no need to create a new feature idea! Please add your support to these ideas, both of which are currently open for voting:

In April 2022 Instructure made it possible to change the default due date at account, sub account, and course level:

Really hoping to get this idea up and running again. I know some of us definitely see the benefit for this for our K12 kiddos, especially if you could designate it by section within a particular course or in account settings.
