JuanD. Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Hello all. I am new in the forum, however reading your shares and comments was truly helpful in my quest for a DAAD scholarship on 2019. That’s why I wanted to give something in return by sharing here my experience, successfully obtaining a DAAD Helmut-Schmidt-Programme 2019 scholarship (full Master's Scholarships for Public Policy and Good Governance – PPGG). I received a confirmation just a few days ago on the platform, after a long process started long time ago. If you guys have questions, comments, or you were also awarded with a HSP scholarship, please don’t hesitate in contact me. Best, Juan D.

Oh no, I didn't apply for the EPOS or any other option program they offer, so I could not properly answer. I tried the individual option and was accepted by a tutor at the LUH, now I'm just waiting for the DAAD scholarship results. Since they are a smaller Uni, they tend to be efficient when processing applications tough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lessthanepsilon Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 (edited) For short-term research grant 2019, applied from the US to the NY DAAD office. I am a graduating undergrad, the grant is typically for PhD students but given to graduates in 'exceptional cases': Wed February 6 my portal status changed to Selection Made This morning around midnight I received an email telling me to check portal message. My status still reads Selection Made: I received a rejection letter as a pdf in a notification: "Your application was thoroughly reviewed by the responsible DAAD Selection Committee, on which professors sit in an honorary capacity. We regret to have to inform you that the committee decided not to award you a scholarship. The Selection Committee for the selection Research Scholarships - ShortTerm 19_1 had to decide between 76 applications and was able to award 32 scholarships. The number of qualified applications usually exceeds the number of available scholarships. Negative decisions do not always mean the committee considers the applicant to be unsuitable for the scholarship, but initially only that other applicants have been rated more highly in the given competitive situation. It is the DAAD’s policy not to give detailed information on the reasons that led to this decision. Please be assured that the selection committee members gave full and due consideration to all relevant aspects contained in your application and in those submitted by other candidates. We hope that this disappointing decision will not discourage you from looking for other ways to carry out your project. I wish they gave feedback because this was my first grant proposal, and I'd like to know what to do to improve. Congrats to all who got it and best of luck to everybody waiting!

Esteban Arias Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 3 hours ago, DiogoFidelis said: I'm in the same situation and also confused with this info. This is what I have found: "The final rating will be the average of both single scores (academic achievements and research proposal). It will result in a ranking list, according to which successful and reserve candidates will be identified, taking into account the available funding. The commission will decide on the cut-off point below which funding is not possible." So far, you have not been rejected and depends on the DAADs funding.
