I got an email this morning directing me to the portal. I got rejected for the short term research. Apparently funded ~30 of the roughly 80 applicants. They have a 10-point rating scale and I was told I barely missed the cut at 8.5.

Yes, keeping me waiting But better than a rejection! Still no word. I'm applying from the US

I received an email informing me that the amount of money the DAAD has to fund applicants is low this cycle. As a result I've been sort of waitlisted for funding. They will notify me in a few weeks. DAAD Short-Term Research funding

For those of you who were accepted to the Language program I wanted to let you know that I received my documents today from Germany via the portal. It didn't come in a message but rather I got an email that told me that there were new documents on my application page. They were all in German (which is funny considering the point of the program is to learn German) but they basically detail the funding I receive and have a letter of acceptance I could upload back to them.

Yeah, the idea is you don't have to use the lodging offered by the language institute and could use the surplus to cover alternate lodging arrangements They should provide a bit of travel support as well. https://www.daad.de/rkp-hsk_isk

of course! PM me anytime!

Just heard from Uta that I got my first choice location, Berlin. I have not received a message on the portal yet since my status turned to funded. Language Institut-Berlin

Aw that's so lame Horb! Keep up the hard work I'm sure other opportunities will arise!

So my portal has said Goethe-Berlin for a long time and that has not changed since it went to funding. I was not sure whether that meant that I got Berlin (my first choice) or whether it just has not changed. Did yours say something about Freiburg (your 1st choice) and switch to Dresden?

Sweet! Thanks for the info

I did not see it go blank, but it may have and then changed to funding before I logged on. No email yet. Also, I'm not sure where they are sending me. I'm assuming I'll here when I get the email.

Thanks Horb! You've been a great manager of this thread. I pulling for you!

It changed to funding! Thanks for all the support on this thread folks. I hope those of you have not yet heard get to hear back soon! Applying: DAAD Intensive Language Grant, DAAD NYC, Status: Funding

Nope!
