Not selected for ETA Germany. However, I was notified yesterday that I've been awarded a DAAD Graduate Study scholarship so I am still overjoyed! Congrats to everyone who was selected! It's been fun lurking on this page for awhile and I wish everyone the best of luck!

I think it depends on what program you're applying to and country you're applying from. I applied for a Graduate Study scholarship and I am from the US. My application status changed to "Funding" about a week ago but I still haven't received any email or update on the portal. However, I called the DAAD NY office and they were able to confirm that I have indeed been awarded the scholarship. They upload documents for each person individually, so the process takes awhile and sometimes the status gets changed on the portal but the documents won't be uploaded until later. If you applied for the Graduate study scholarship from the US and you're status hasn't changed yet, I think the likelihood of having been awarded a scholarship is low ;/. But again, it varies by country and scholarship and they even might not have gotten around to updating everyone's status who has been awarded. Best of luck and I hope you hear back soon!

I still haven't received any notification. The suspense is killing me!

Were you notified by email or letter in the mail?

Hello! After weeks of lurking, I finally made an account. My application status has also changed to "Funding" for a Master's study scholarship! Has everyone already applied to the German institution and been accepted? I haven't applied yet because my application deadline in June 15 and I wanted to see if I was awarded the scholarship before I applied (since I couldn't attend unless I had a scholarship). Am I late to the game? Should I be worried? I'm hoping to have the application submitted by the end of April. Thanks everyone!
