Hi everyone! So glad I found a tread for this year DAAD selection.
I'm a graphic designer from Brazil applying to the "Studies in Fine Art, Film, Design/Visual" program. My goal is to do a Masters degree in Cologne.
The final date for uploading the Portfolio was 31 of January (after a delay, as it was planned to be on the 15 at first).
Never got a confirmation for the portfolio upload. It was like a drive, but there was no final "upload" button at the end. I sent an email to the Sao Paulo office yesterday asking questions just to make sure (I was a bit nervous this past week).
If they follow their own schedule I should have an answer by the end of this month. However, after reading the thread from the 21/22 people I'm not optimistic anymore. A guy applying for the same scholarship as me, with very similar dates, only received a real answer in the middle of June (he made it, it was so cool to know!)
So yeah, I just wanted to share so people in the future can read this, and for me to feel less lonely in the process.
Keeping the hopes up, but preparing myself for not hearing from them for a few months.
