Ā However, I wish to hear from applicants from Sub-Saharan Africa because my application status is still "application submitted" . I was messaged that all applicants will soon be informed of the selection outcomes when I asked why the outcome is not yet out as promised (three weeks after selection committee meeting - 28/29 January).

watermelonsugar Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 I received a letter informing me that I'd been chosen for an interview back in January, and since then I haven't got anything. Still waiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appreciate any further feedback. @MSEEDSĀ I know the waiting is not a nice feeling but please bear in mind that all regions and of course countries have different application processes. For instance I have applied from Turkey and interviews are not required here, the decision will be made based on the documents I have submitted. I wish the whole process was universal but try to either get in touch with DAAD regional office or with Bonn through the Portal directly.Ā Good luck!

I do not think they are more willingly to award certain candidates just based on (or because of) the region/country ofĀ the said candidate. Depending on the funding type, they are most probably especially consider the quality of the research proposal, overall profile of the candidate etc. but just because you are coming from X or Y country/region, you are not most -or least, for that matter- likely to be awarded.Ā Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I attended the webinars of daad scholarship. There are two types of daad scholarship, first is the epos or doctoral program type which the selection is usually based on the quality of candidates regardless the country or region and the committee are most likely from that program. Second type is the study grants you applied directly to daad which there are quata for available scholarship for each country but the selection is made based on your profile as well but just the competition is just within your country. I think you should ask daad in your country for a certain answer. nichtsehrgut and ImyImy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
