@HGILLS Just got a response on the portal: they said that my info will be passed on to the course provider in the next two days. (What a relief!)

It's the same with me. The last time I spoke with the Goethe Institut they said that it should be this week at the latest, but my course starts in less than a month and I'm really apprehensive about booking transportation if I haven't gotten any further confirmation. I believe that's how it works.

@HGILLS @Andrey Have either of you heard anything back about your courses yet? It's now less than a month until mine starts and the Goethe Institut says that they haven't gotten my info from DAAD. I just called the Bonn office and they told me to send a portal message (my last portal message never got a response).

Thanks for the update! I was thinking of calling them, but I guess I'll hold off a little longer.

Yeah it's pretty frustrating. I also sent a portal message, but haven't gotten a response. I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only one though (as if my file had somehow been forgotten or something...).

A question for anyone who have received the language grant: have you gotten any information from your course provider? I contacted mine the other day (Goethe Institut Mannheim) but they said that they hadn't received my information from DAAD yet and that I'll receive more information from them when they do.

I didn't sign my declaration of acceptance but I still got an automated message saying that it had been received. Does anyone know if we need to enroll ourselves at our particular institution or does DAAD do that for us?

I'm so sorry to hear that you didn't get the grant! You've been a huge source of support and information in this thread. Feel free to send me a PM if you want to talk applications.

My status also changed to funding (language grant)! Yay! Mine changed directly to funding, and I haven't got an email yet. I'm hoping you hear soon!

I think Horb was referring to the timeline for the NY office. Since you're applying to a different office, they're probably working on a slightly different timeline. So there's no need to expect a rejection if you haven't heard anything yet.

I don't either.

That would be awful! Best of luck to @s3v. Here's hoping for an acceptance!

Congrats!! It seems like people usually receive a confirmation email within a few days of their status changing, so I wouldn't worry too much about that.

Yup, still no change for me either.

Congrats!!
