    Hi Riel,

    Read your message just now. Yes, i will keep in touch with you once i got the scholarship, finger-crossed.

    I wonder if during your time, you two, were the only applicants in PH? Cause in 2018 DAAD report, there were about 14 applicants for PhD from Pinas who got the scholarship.

    And yes, we don't have interview. I don't know why. You had yours? Who interviewed you back then?

    Also, i'm quite concern with the corona outbreak, is everything fine in Germany? I mean, provided we got the scholarship are we allowed to go to our target university?

    Many thanks,

    Wilbert

    We were interviewed by 3 people- 2 from the German embassy and one from DAAD. Yup, 2 lang kaming Filipino who got "Research Grants- Doctoral Programme in Germany". Good luck! Usually sabay-sabay release ng results depende sa region.

    Hi Kevin and Greta,

    Are you both PhD or MSc applicants? It appears to me that i am the only one who did not received any result yet. I applied for PhD Research Grant in Kiel University. Also, is Nathali Bursinski your DAAD contact person?

    Congrats to both of you kababayan!

    Hi Wilbert! Let me know if you get the scholarship. I’ve started my PhD in GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research in Kiel last year. Last year, 2 lang kami from Pinas who got the scholarship for doctoral programmes in Germany. I’m wondering why wala kayong interview this year? 

  3. Hi guys! I'm Riel Ingeniero from the Philippines. Anyone who's language course will be in Berlin? I'll be in Berlin starting June 1. I'll be doing my PhD at GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research in Kiel by October.

    I apply for DAAD Summer Courses and my application status changed from "Selection made" to "Funding" yesterday, but I still don't receive any email. Anyone konws what's the meaning of "Funding"? I ask the staff of DAAD office in my country and they tell me the result will come out at the end of this month, but today is the last work day of March.

    I really check the portal 10 times a day and want some new messages!

    Congrats Shanon! You got the scholarship! You will receive the official letter within a week.

    2. The duration of my scholarship is 3 years for PhD. Now the dates I had entered changed. Now it is showing (from: 01.10.2019 to: 30.09.2020). But ideally, it should have been 2022 for the year in ''to''. Why is it so?

    3. I haven't yet received any award letter and the status still says 'Initial funding' and 'Application submitted'. When is it that I can expect this to change?

    4. Now that I have the scholarship, is it that the language course of 4 months be located close to my university or is it that it's allocated randomly?

    5. When is it that I can hear from them now? I don't know why they said 'Please do not inform your supervisor/ guide at this stage or publish on public media'. I can understand the second part, but not the first part. I have received the scholarship and still they want me to keep it a secret.

    Any tips for the Visa interview?

    Thanks,

    vir

    my comments: 

    1. It’s not yet final until you sign the Acceptance of Conditions. Also, theyre  finalizing everything before sending the Award Letter.

    2. Duration of scholarship is one year, in the letter you will find the details that it is renewable every year.

    3. Mine also was Application Submitted for a long time before it changed to Selection Made then Funding

    4. They can either give you no language course, 2 months, 4 months, or 6 months depending on the need for your German institute. The location is not the same city  with your university. They’ll provide pocket money during those preparatory language course. 

    5. Do not inform your Professor because it’s not final until the Award Letter was prepared. Youll  apply for visa if you already have the letter and the Insurance Certificate which you will receive about a week after sending your Acceptance.

    Good luck!

    Hello , does anyone know why they change the funding date ?  they changed mine from 01.06.2019 to 01.10.2019.

    Plus they did not notify me, I just found by checking on the portal ?

    Same for me, the starting date was changed. They didn't inform me they would change the date but I got an email clarifying that "Starting date of the scholarship will be the 01.10.2019 (an earlier starting date is not possible!)". But was your ending date also changed?

    Hi! From which countries are you from? My guess is that you got the scholarship and you will be attending the German language course from June to September.

    Hello everyone,

    To share an update, I just received an email saying that I've been nominated to be a reserve candidate in case a scholarship becomes available.
    I understand my application was not enough to award a scholarship on the first round. My status is still selection made.
    It shows that the selection process is continuously working and news could come anytime.

    Fingers crossed and best of luck to all of us.

    hi Artaud! May I know from which region you came from? :)

    Hello, Im from Malaysia.

    I’ve been following – quietly – this thread for a while. 

    Does anyone here contacted by DAAD representative through our portal?

    I’ve received a message from DAAD today asking for double confirmation whether I am willing to proceed with my application or not – to which I replied; yes! (Last message was in November I think, she mentioned about my application was complete and will be consider to go for a next round, plus the selection meeting will be on January and letter will be submit after three weeks)

    And she need the confirmation before 1st March as the meeting is still on going.

    btw, my current status is still: application submitted.

     

    hello Tunfairuz, 

    Riel here from Philippines. I received the same message from DAAD in Bonn. See image attached. We're on the same boat. Hope we'll be selected for scholarship! I replied and she said she'll inform us once final decision will be made.
