C#

//Use the DateTime class
//The constructor is, new DateTime(int yyyy, int month,int day)
DateTime dateTime = new DateTime(2015, 1, 1);
//You can also parse a string
DateTime dateTimeFromString = DateTime.Parse("01/01/2015");
//To display the day as its full name e.g. Monday
string dayOfWeekLong=  dateTime.ToString("dddd");
//To display the day as a shortened name e.g. Mon
string dayOfWeekShort = dateTime.ToString("ddd");
//To display as numeric e.g. 09, 29
string dayOfWeekNumericLong = dateTime.ToString("dd");

Try this:

C#

using System;
using System.Globalization;

public class Program
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        string dateString = "01/01/2015";
        string format = "dd/MM/yyyy";
        DateTime aDate;
        if (DateTime.TryParseExact(dateString, format, CultureInfo.InvariantCulture,
            DateTimeStyles.None, out aDate))
        {
            Console.WriteLine("The day of the week for {0} is {1}.", dateString, aDate.DayOfWeek);
        }
    }
}

1. use DateTime.TryParseExact Method[^] to parse the date string to a pre-determined datetime format.
2. use DateTime.DayOfWeek Property[^] to return the day of the week for that date.
