How this list is made

A deadline appears here when the programme publishes one on its own website; the day count is calculated when you open the page. Each programme page carries its own calendar file, and deadlines.ics subscribes you to all of them. Programmes without a published date are not listed — most in the Gulf take applications through a form that stays open.
