Again, thank you. Kind regards, Adeline Hi Adeline, Im not sure about that, try to contact the people that gave you recomendation letters, when DAAD sent me the first email asking me for registering in the Portal, they literally said: Kindly note that all of the following documents have to be submitted as attachments in addition to the (blue) application form that you can download via the portal in order to complete your application:- DAAD (green) application form for research grants and study- Personally signed motivation letter with date of issue and statement regarding other applications (if applicable)- Personally signed full curriculum vitae with date of issue- Certified translation of university degree (bachelor)- Certified translation of university transcripts (an explanation of the grading system has to be attached, too)- Recent language certificates (English)- Two letters of recommendation by university professors and/or current or former employers of current date, supplemented by signature, official letterhead, stamp Wish you the best and I strongly recomend you to go for those letters!

Maka Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Hey guys, This crossed countries (Turkey) means they are eligible or not for DAAD EPOS scholarship? I'm little confused, they are on the list but... https://static.daad.de/media/daad_de/pdfs_nicht_barrierefrei/dac-länderliste_berichtsjahre_2018-2020_epos_vers_2_.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw here that you got accepted for the DAAD scholarship and that you are from the Philippines. Congratulations! I got accepted too under the DAAD Helmut Schmidt Program and I am Filipino too. May I know when does your language program start and if you have applied for a visa already? 9 hours ago, Greta Gonzaga said: Hello Kevin, congrats. Hope to hangout with you and other filipino scholars in Germany in the future. Have already scheduled for a visa appointment this June. Language class will start in Aug 3. How 'bout you? Hi Kevin and Greta, Are you both PhD or MSc applicants? It appears to me that i am the only one who did not received any result yet. I applied for PhD Research Grant in Kiel University. Also, is Nathali Bursinski your DAAD contact person? Congrats to both of you kababayan! Wilbert Edited February 25, 2020 by Wilbert ST34 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlos Hello Carlos, got the same email but mine has a note that says: 'If your academic and professional letters of recommendation have been sent directly to University of Bonn, you do not need to upload them on the DAAD portal.' I also applied for the EPOS program so I don't have a copy of my recommendation letters. The letters were confidential and directly sent by my previous professors to the university. hope this helps.

Mervey Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 On 2/19/2020 at 2:51 PM, UselessSimo said: Hello everyone, I am a PhD applicant from Morocco (Political Science and Sociology in Frankfurt). I sent in my application back in August (deadline was September 2nd). I've had my interview at the embassy last November. Now I am already enrolled in a PhD program. Here are few remarks: - I was told that results for the current step would be early 2020 (between March and April) - My status had changed to 'Paper Copies Received' a while ago and it remains the same until now. - My funding period is initially October 2020 to June 2024, but similarly to many of you, it has changed to October 2020 to September 2021 (one year exactly). According to DAAD, funding is awarded initially for one year then renewed upon meeting some requirements. - For those who are yet to have an interview, just be honest and confident with your answers. Mine was a little bad since a Moroccan professor misinterpreted the Italian word "Ammesso" (for an oral interview at an Italian uni) and insisted I am enrolled in it. It took minutes off my interview time. - I think it all depends on heavy bureaucracy and it takes plenty of time. Be patient! Any applicants from Morocco/North Africa? Hello Simo; I am from north Africa as well, Appling for a PhD program as well. do you have any significant changes in your portal ?? I was told that the results will be anounced end of this month when I called the DAAD office, but nothing yet !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarlosgmPe Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Hi everyone! Anybody from Latin America who has already received the scholarship documents? Have you already started your visa application? As I understood, DAAD must send us some documents before we send our confirmation in Declaration of Acceptance... In addition, my MSc programme will take place in Dresden, but my German language course will be in Leipzig, so.. where to apply in the visa form? Is any facebook group created related to those topics? Thank you in advance. Carlos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Visas to Germany from Morocco take up to 7-8 months, 5 months to get an appointment. So I already started getting my papers ready. I am super nervous but hopeful. I expect results in max two weeks, but I check the portal every hour. Let me know if you have any results. ❤? Best, Simo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starting your dissertation depends on how you agree with your supervisor (timeline, logistics...etc). My PhD is entirely research-based and has no courses or exams. That's why it was easy to agree on the topic and what/when to write. So it depends entirely on your communication with your supervisor. Bonne chance a nous. En reste en contact pendant cette période ✌?? Meilleurs vœux, Simo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
