Hi elloj and suminiky. Where did you apply from if you don't mind me asking?

Thanks for that info! No one bothered replying to my recent inquiries. I sent three messages and got no reply. It seems that the decision as to when results will be out is so spontaneous. Initially, I was told I would have to wait for three months, which means that I should have been notified in early March. And then I sent an email and was told results will be out mid-April but that didn't happen obviously. So here we are. Third week of April and still no end in sight.

Hi. I applied for the research grant to pursue PhD in Germany and my application status on the portal hasn't changed. It still shows "Application submitted." It has been more than 4 months since my interview. And I really have no idea what is going on. Last week should have been the week of being notified about the outcome of my application but that didn't happen.

no reply to my email inquiry. Neither from DAAD Bonn via the portal nor from DAAD in my country. It is so frustrating

What the heck is going on?!? It is already April 18 and still no word from DAAD! I just want to know if I am rejected so I can forget about DAAD sooner rather than later!

Thank you so much! Good luck to you too and I really hope we all hear back from DAAD soonest!

I applied for research grant to do PhD in Germany.

What did you apply for? And who did you email? DAAD in your country or did you send a message via portal? I never got a reply on portal.

I should have been notified of the outcome of my application this week because that's what the DAAD representative in my country said. But still no word from DAAD.

Same here. But in my case, my application is still "Application submitted."

Me!!

Hi Horb. So sorry to hear that I know how difficult it is to be rejected and not get what you badly need or want. I haven't heard anything yet about my application. Oh well.

What is the point of telling us to send a message/inquiry via the portal if no one ever replies?!? This is so frustrating!

So did you send or have you ever sent a message via the portal? Tell me about it! We are all (well at least those of us who are still waiting) in the dark. I wonder when this pain would end.

Thank you for that information. I haven't called DAAD Bonn yet and based on what you just said, I am not going to call.
