How this data is collected
Status is computed from the dates on the official page: closing soon within 14 days, red within 3. When the deadline time or time zone isn’t stated, the deadline counts until the end of that day anywhere on Earth, so a program never shows as closed early. Always confirm on the official page before applying.
