Valyti Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 @Italians, I got an update via the portal for the short term PhD research grants. "Your application is complete and will be considered in the selection process. A funding decision will be made at the selection meeting in June 2021 on the basis of the submitted documents. We will inform you of the outcome as a rule approximately within three weeks after the meeting in writing." my status is still application submitted. If the meeting will be held in June, I assume we will get our results in July? Wario and Cam31 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if this helps but you can see in the DAAD's annual reports how many people they funded from each country. For example in 2019, 49 Italian Master students received indivual funding, for example. In Belgium, my case, there were only 3 :") That statistic helped keep my expectations in check. But I agree, top grades and study abroad seems like exactly what they're looking for... Let's just keep waiting it out huh... Thanks! it was very interesting! I found that the most founded students study political sciences or languages... Well, in this case I have no idea what are they looking for in applicants ? I study languages, lived in Germany for one semester, and my grades are excellent ? Ufora 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The average for Ireland over the 6 years is 1.8. I think what little hope I had is gone but better to have realistic expectations ?

I applied from Austria in November for a long term PhD research grant, and I received the same letter saying that the scholarship meeting would be in March, and I'd get my results within three weeks after that. No news since then, only that they are busy because of COVID. Your results will not come before July then, and there are chances that mine won't either.

Omg I guess then maybe I shouldn't necessarily expect a result in July... Fingers crossed though! 6 hours ago, av9ha6 said: Did you apply in March 2020 and you just received this e-mail?

I'm accepting @Cam31's prediction that we probably won't hear anything this week (again). If they don't tell us next week, aka before June (!), I'm gonna be real pissed off though. We've been waiting anxiously every week since April! June would be too much + university applications are starting to close so?

Next Monday is bank holiday in Germany if I'm not mistaken, so it's gonna be only four days for work - not good for us. Clarl and Ufora 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
av9ha6 Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 BTW I was selected 6 years ago for MA all disciplines, and I received the notification on 19 May 2015. So this May scheduling is not at all COVID related, seems like they are delayed most of the time. giulssd, nichtsehrgut, Ufora and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
