Exactly, it's been quiet for so long... I'm accepting @Cam31's prediction that we probably won't hear anything this week (again).

Just out of curiosity, what funding dates did you guys give DAAD? My masters course is 2 years and I think I asked for way too long, I just looked at my uni academic calendar and lectures actually finish way before the end of the funding dates i gave them :// whoops

Expand  

It does not matter, if your program is two academic years then they give 24 months of funding. If it is only one academic year, they give one year of funding.

At least in the next sentence now they acknowledged that the two weeks is for them to know, but they need to assemble the letters, which is at least one additional week to the two.

I was thinking about the german course. If there is 4 months of language course. The university starts at October 15. If they are taking that long to announce results, how would we do the german course? 
People who got the scholarship will start german lessons next week...

I’ve been wondering this myself. In many instances people would be required to give notice to employers etc, which wouldn’t be possible with such short notice. (Not that I expect news within a week ? but whenever it does come about)

The language course is not necessary 4 months, it can be one or two months as well. I think if they offered a 4 month course now for selected candidates, people would get a notification/e-mail about the enrollment.

In my case, I got notification about the scholarship almost 2 month ago, although I am still waiting for award letter! In that notification they offered 2 month course in August and September. I have read once that duration of the course depends on your prior knowledge of German, but I don't know if it is indeed so. I have German B2 level at the moment.

I understand there is different courses. In my case I have b1... so I am a bit worried that if am required to do 4 months it’s getting too late.

Yes! They are making things so much complicated by all this delay. Is hard to plan ahead not knowing and sometimes impossible not to move forward after almost 6 months waiting...

Hi all - I'm from the UK and I just got sent a rejection notification so it seems like maybe results for UK people/ maybe other countries could be out soon. Good luck!

Aw, sorry to hear that! ?  Was this for the All Disciplines category? But thank you for letting us know, seems like they might finally be getting the ball rolling then... Nothing for Belgium though, still paper copies received! 

[Grá]

I received a rejection this morning also, UK&Ireland All Disciplines. Goodluck to everyone still waiting, hopefully it will be good news for you ??

Yep - for all disciplines. It could just be UK/ Ireland getting things out today but it seems like a good sign, some decisions are happening!

 

[Birdsong22]

They gave out 17 scholarships and 120  people applied in the UK (Master of all Disciplines). So odds were pretty unlikely, I got a rejection too. Good luck everyone else waiting!! <3
