    Hello everyone! 

    I’ve applied for summer semester master programs in several universities. 

    In this case, can DAAD’s scholarship be given from April? 

    Thanks in advance :)

    Hey,

    I’ve also applied to one summer semester programme! The DAAD office in my country told me it is possible, but the winter semester is preferable. 

    Still, I’m a bit worried about that. As my other options are all winter semester, I put the winter semester dates on the application. Covid could also be a problem for April... 

    Does anyone else have any information about winter semesters?

    Maybe I wasn't clear, but my status is "application submitted", the same as it was in November when I first submitted it... no pre selection, no selection, no paper copies, no nothing... I guess this serves as a prelude to the reckoning that will come with my master's applications.

    I don’t think you should be worried about that. It does take some time for them to process all the applications... and the deadlines are different for each programme.


    I’m sure it’ll change to paper copies received at some point. Then they will let you know when will the decision be made.

    Hi everyone!
    My status changed to "paper copies received". Does this mean that all my documents are complete? Or will they inform me about missing documents?

    Hey BeKay, you will probably receive a notification in the portal saying that your application is complete and will be considered in the selection process.

    That will be in the messages section of the application and funding overview page.

  4. Hey everyone, 

    For those of you who got asked to upload your portfolio in PDF format, did you get any sort of confirmation that they received it?

    I uploaded it to the DAAD Canto platform and the file showed up on the folder. But there was no green tick or any sort of confirmation... was that the same for everyone?

    We are applying from Guatemala and the email said this:

     

    "Dear applicant, you have applied for the Study Scholarship: Postgraduate Studies in the Field of Architecture and submitted the portfolio of your work samples by post. As next step for your application, we kindly ask you to upload your portfolio of work samples in the media data base link that you will find below. Please submit your digital portfolio by January 6th, 2021. Your digital portfolio must be identical to the one you originally submitted with your application by post to the DAAD. 

    Further instructions....

    Please note: Applications whose digital portfolios do not meet the above-mentioned technical requirements or whose portfolios have been uploaded after the given deadline will not be further considered in the selection process.

    Best regards, ST31, Latin America Section"

     

     

    Hey everyone,

    I actually just got this same email asking me to upload my portfolio in PDF format. Same deadline, January 6th.

    Nothing has changed on my DAAD Portal, I still have "Paper copies received" and no new messages there!

     

    I'm guessing if you've not received it yet, you will within the next few days!

    Hello everyone,

    I applied for the architecture programme 2021-2022. Today two of my friends who are also applying recieved an automated email saying that the next step is to upload the portfolio digitally and they have until January 6th to do so, but I haven't recceived such email nor have any messages in the Portal. I have already sent a message asking what's going on in the portal but still no response. I'm kinda freaking out. Is anybody in a similar situation? My application status appears as "Paper copies received".

    Hey @Rexsalazar94, I've not received that notification either, I also have "paper copies received". 

    I sent my printed portfolio with my application though, so I didn't expect them to require a digital portfolio.

    Which country are you applying from?

  7. Hi Monica, when was your application deadline?

    I received a message from DAAD confirming my application was complete and would be considered. That was about a month after the application deadline. 
     

    That time probably varies for different countries and programmes. I wouldn’t worry for now, if it says it was delivered, they have it!

    I think it depends on the country where they applied, because the applicants from Iran must do an interview. After interview, they will select for funding process.

    Do you think the COVID pandemic will affect the outcomes?

    I truly hope not.

    One of the courses I applied to starts in April and we might not have a widely distributed vaccine by then. I expect the situation will be much better by October.

    So far Germany has been allowing the entry of students who can prove their presence is required. Let's hope that doesn't change!

     

  9. Hi Sara,

    The status on mine says Paper copies received.

    The last notification I received was this:

    Thank you for sending us your application for the above programme.

    Your application is complete and will be considered in the selection process.

    A funding decision will be made at the selection meeting in January 2021 (25.01.2021) on the basis of the submitted documents. We will inform you of the outcome as a rule approximately within three weeks after the meeting in writing.

    If selection is only made in January, maybe their applications were incomplete?

    Or maybe for different programmes, selection is on different dates, mine is architecture.

  10. Hi!

    I actually had the same doubt as you, @Diellza!

    In my application I wrote down each module and their respective credits and I wrote down the elective courses I'm planning to choose. Filling this out was quite a long process, it took a lot more time than I expected.

    I'm not sure if that is what they expected though, it would be interesting to know if anyone else has done it differently!

     

    Good luck to all of us!!

     

     

  11. Hey everyone!

    Some of us were commenting on the forum for 2020-2021 applications, so I figured I should create one for this year, so it's easier for people to find it.

    I've applied to the architecture programme 2021-2022.

    Let's be anxious together!

  12. Hey everyone! I've also applied for the architecture programme 2021 and received this same message confirming that my application documents are ok!

    @Lampioulou I've heard from a friend that you can receive a scholarship for a 4th course option, but only if you've not been accepted in your three main options. This is not an official source, so it's worth checking with DAAD!

    About the applications, for most universities starting in October 2021, you can apply after the scholarship results are out. But if any of them have earlier deadlines, you should apply before!

    I've already applied to one that starts in April. According to DAAD it's preferable that we choose courses starting in October, but courses starting in April can be a possibility.

    Is anyone else applying for summer semester courses?
