Exactly :) Congratulations! ?

Thank you so much. I hope you guys are right. I'll wait for the official letter of acceptance to "celebrate", but it seems things are looking good.

Hey guys, my first time posting here. I am waiting for the results for graduates of all academic disciplines... I only checked today that my status is "selection made". Apparently this means nothing. Is it true that we have been promised the info THIS MONTH (=today)? The anxiety is killing me...

Hey, as far as i know you’re right, but being realistic I don’t think so, I know a lot of people who are awaiting results (including me), I was told by the regional DAAD office of my country that the process sometimes can be extended until May or June. The anxiety is killing me too...

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.

I signed up for the DAAD masters scholarship for graduates of all disciplines, the status on the portal is still "preselection made" and a couple of hours ago I received this email from DAAD:

 

Dear applicants

 

With this e-mail we would like to inform you, that the DAAD selection committee has nominated you for a scholarship offered under the programme „Study Scholarships for Graduates of All Disciplines 19/20“.

 

Before sending you the official Scholarship Certificate and further scholarship documents, we would like to know, if you are still intending to take up the scholarship as planned. If your plans have changed in the meantime we kindly ask you to inform us as soon as possible, until April 4th, 2019 latest. If you still intend to take up the scholarship as planned you don’t have to take any further steps at the moment. Please wait for the official notification by the DAAD through the DAAD portal.

 

Please note that this message is just a notification about a nomination for a scholarship. It does not constitute a (legal) claim for a scholarship.

 

We look forward to hearing from you.

 

Could someone with experience tell me a bit about decrypting the bureaucratic language here? Does this basically mean that I was chosen for the scholarship and this is just to see if there are any applicants that are not going to go through with it, or is there another round of selection to be done? Should I be happy? haha

 

Hello .. Same here

I'm from India.. and found your case quite similar to mine.

I am just fade up with the sluggish attitude of the DAAD India office.

On the first occasion, DAAD mailed me this:   

"The DAAD is glad to offer the scholarship that you had applied for. Please let us know by 12 NOON tomorrow at the latest by email if you accept the scholarship or not. I am sorry for the very short notice.

This is a preliminary enquiry so kindly do not communicate this offer to anyone. Not even your German / Indian guides as this is not the formal offer. DO NOT ANNOUNCE THIS OF THE SOCIAL MEDIA."

 

When I  accept the offer, the reply was like this: 

"Thank you for accepting the DAAD PhD scholarship ... ... ... Please book a visa appointment as soon as you get the award letter. Please keep in mind that the DAAD cannot intervene with the Embassy or consulate regarding the visa. This is not applicable to those who are already in Germany. It is very important that you inform us immediately if for some reason you are unable to accept the scholarship so that that scholarship can be offered to some other deserving student."

 

The third communication was like this: 

"The award documents will take another 3 to 4 weeks (which means towards the end of April). Please inform your respective guides only after you have the award letter.

Take a visa appointment as soon as you get the same. I will give you the contact details for the vfs later.

Meanwhile please send me the following information so that we can inform the respective consulates about your award and visa application

Name, Passport number, Mobile number, Email id, Where will you apply for visa"

 

I can not deduce anything solid out of these emails. Are they sending everyone this kind of emails just to screen their opinions, or to the potential awardees?

I got notification of my fellowship award on Wednesday (Graduate Student research - full year). In the letter it says to find a form called "Consent Processing Medical Data" to sign and return on the DAAD Portal website, does anyone know where to find that form?

So I guess that those who did not receive an e-mail about the nomination, most likely will not receive a scholarship? Or has happened before to be awarded with a scholarship even though you did not received such e-mail?

I think that depends on the scholarship, for the case of EPOS I have been told in the regional office of Colombia that depends directly on the university, in past years there has been case that the notification has arrived in March, so I still do not lose hope ...

Woke up today if an email saying that I have received a message in the DAAD Portal. 
After long weeks of waiting and seeing only "Selection Made" on my application status, today it changed to Application Rejected. This is some data extracted from the message that I received that I would like to share if anyone interested: 

The Selection Committee for the selection Study Scholarships for Foreign Graduates in the Fields of Fine Art, Design, Visual Communication and Film had to decide between 334 applications and was able to award 43 scholarships.

Unfortunately I was not one of them.
But thanks for everyone that helped me here!

Good evening Guys! My application status is "preselection made"  but my firend's is "selection made". We are from the same country. Does it make any sense?

Hello, my status changed from selection made to preselection made today. I don't understand why.

Hello guys, 

I just received this message in the DAAD Portal:

"Dear Juliano,

I am glad being able to inform you that you have been selected for a DAAD scholarship. Congratulations!

In order I can issue the Letter of Award for the period of 1st October 2019 to 30th September 2021, I need to know first if you would need an intensive German course before the scholarship starts? We can finance you either a 4-months (June-September) or a 2-months course (August-September) in Germany. Which one would suit you?"

Someone know how can I answer it at the DAAD Portal? And how these German courses works? I still don't have the letter of acceptance of the university, the selection process will conclude only in July.
