Hello guys, this is the second time I applied to the scholarship for artistic talents. My status changed today from "selection made" to "application rejected". I didn't got an e-mail or anything, it will probably arrive later today. Even though I didn't got the scholarship,  I'm still planning on going to Germany and studying a master's degree in graphic design this year. If you are awarded the scholarship that's awesome! But if you don't, life still goes on and you can achieve your dreams on a different way, don't let that discourage you! Best of luck to everyone!

thanks guys, i too can log in. just that my status has been selection made since beginning of February without any updates. more than a month now!! so am kind of tired with the obsessive checking of the portal.   

You don't need to be upset, it doesn't mean anything.

Yes, I believe that the language course is included in the scholarship. 

It is normal for DAAD to correct that. Technically, for Phd research grants, the funding dates are for one year starting on Oct 1st and ending on sept 30th of the next year, after that, it should be renewed for the next year and so on. Those dates in the portal do not include the months for the German course.  It's usually a good sign, but no change in the dates or in the status should be confused with the official statement through the acceptance/rejection letter. Furthermore, many have received the award without any modification in the portal dates or status.
Hope to hear good news from you soon

Dear All,
I received letter of award from DAAD.
The status is changed to Funding.
Good luck and hope to see you all in Germany.

Waiting is painful ?
