As next step for your application, we kindly ask you to upload your portfolio of work samples in the media data base link that you will find below. Please submit your digital portfolio by January 6th, 2021. Your digital portfolio must be identical to the one you originally submitted with your application by post to the DAAD. Further instructions.... Please note: Applications whose digital portfolios do not meet the above-mentioned technical requirements or whose portfolios have been uploaded after the given deadline will not be further considered in the selection process. Best regards, ST31, Latin America Section" Hey everyone, I actually just got this same email asking me to upload my portfolio in PDF format. Same deadline, January 6th. Nothing has changed on my DAAD Portal, I still have "Paper copies received" and no new messages there! I'm guessing if you've not received it yet, you will within the next few days!

Your application is complete and will be considered in the selection process. At a later stage in the proceedings, a preselection will be made on the basis of all written applications.All applicants who meet the requirements will be invited to attend a personal interview. The selection committee is meeting from 17/02/2021 to 18/02/2021. Because we are only able to inform you of the actual date at fairly short notice, we kindly ask you to keep this period free. Unfortunately, preferred appointment times cannot usually be considered for organisational reasons. Selection will occur exclusively online via video conference. To attend the video conference, please complete the form "Statement of attendance at the virtual selection meeting" which can be found in the DAAD portal under "Options – Video conference statement" and upload it to the same location in the portal by 21/12/2020 at the latest. Please inform us immediately if you wish to withdraw your application. We wish you luck with the upcoming selection procedure. I AM FREAKING OUTTTTT and will die until February! Best of luck for you all! I got the same notice back in October also for All Academic Disciplines. Just now, my status changed from "paper copies received" to "preselection made" and I got an invitation to a video conference that will be held in a week! They also state that within two weeks after the interview, I will know the final results of my application. Good luck everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you apply for the summer or winter semester? Sorry for all the questions, I am just super stressed out. Good luck to you on the interview I am sure you will rock it and get the scholarship.

My bad, it wasn't October, it was December, so it took about a month. I applied for the winter semester. The date of my interview is actually one of the two possible dates stated in the initial message, so that would be the 17/02/2021 to 18/02/2021 in your case I assume. I was notified 7 days before my interview. Thank you, I'm sure you will too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJ2888 Posted January 5, 2021 Author Share Posted January 5, 2021 Hey everyone, For those of you who got asked to upload your portfolio in PDF format, did you get any sort of confirmation that they received it? I uploaded it to the DAAD Canto platform and the file showed up on the folder. But there was no green tick or any sort of confirmation... was that the same for everyone?

nichtsehrgut Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 Hi everyone, I applied for the "Postgraduate Studies in the Fields of Fine Art, Film, Design/Visual Communication and Film, 2021/22" scholarship aiming for a Communication Design MA in Muthesius, HAW Hamburg, or BURG Halle. I submitted both online and physical applications before the deadline and the physical app's tracking number says it was recieved and signed by DAAD but my DAAD portal's update still doesn't show the "papers recieved" neither the "preselection made" bit; it's still at "application submitted" status IIRC...I'm not sure if I should worry but I sent an email asking to the Latin America DAAD office just in case ?

Ridiculous. Well, at least you know something and have some official information, you are not kept in the dark like the rest of us ? Judging from the previous years, great majority of applicants receive the final decision in April, so it's not uncommon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomeu Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 New update in my application submitted in November - application status just changed to 'paper copies received' (January) and I also received letter stating that the final decision will be made in March, thus the official results will come out in April.

Hey BeKay, you will probably receive a notification in the portal saying that your application is complete and will be considered in the selection process. That will be in the messages section of the application and funding overview page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
