It seems like people usually receive a confirmation email within a few days of their status changing, so I wouldn't worry too much about that. Thank you! I hope that's the case!

Just a guess, but it seems like these come in waves. Summer Language Grant, DAAD NY, portal status: 'selection made' Agreed. There's usually a three week wait, but if that is the case it'll be far past "end of March or early April" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to celebrate, but I still haven't received an e-mail confirmation, so I'm a little hesitant.... I got the email 2 or 3 days later, you will get the msg in the portal! after you need to submit the "declaration of aceptance" but all the instructions are gonna be there in your email! dont worry!! and celebrate already!

Austria has some ETA opportunities as well that are not Fulbright. I am hoping more for research (though study could be entertained). I am currently doing a PhD in the USA, but opportunities in my subfield are fantastic in Germany, and my department is very supportive of people leaving for a year (or so) to collaborate on research elsewhere. Thanks for any leads! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for any leads! Yeah, the Fulbright Research to Germany would the best route (other than DAAD). But you should definitely see if there are dissertation fellowships that allow for travel (i.e. they give you $20K, but it doesn't state you NEED to stay at your university for the year. It is just earmarked for the dissertation work, so you could go abroad for a year and live off of that money. You'd still need to figure out how a visa would work if 90 days wouldn't be enough for the research). UCLA's GRAPES database (just google that) and Cornell's database provide a TON of external fellowship opportunities. Just make sure you aren't look at an internal or Uni of Cal based grant (most listings in the database are not restricted to UCLA or the Uni of Cal system).

Heimat Historian Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Hi all. I'm applying for the intensive language scholarship and I still have "selection made" in my portal. I guess we'll be waiting a bit still huh? Anjana017 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heimat Historian Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 That makes buying tickets kind of tight, doesn't it? Do you remember what school you put down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did Goethe Institut. I say April 16th because the last two years, it was April 16th and April 17th. I don't expect a change. I also don't know if they care if getting tickets is "tight" as we do get a stipend for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EarlyModernGermany Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 The tight window is tricky, especially since I'm going to try to go even if I don't get funding. The first Goethe-Institut course available in the summer begins April 25th. Even if there are any slots left in that class as late as the 15th, trying to get ready to leave the country in less than 10 days will be difficult. Hopefully we'll here sooner!

Horb Posted March 31, 2016 Author Share Posted March 31, 2016 Yeah but there's a difference between when daad funds and when Goethe institute holds courses. But it doesn't matter. They would have told you so I assume it has changed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

x\/x\/x Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 @Gibery @SNP3 Would either of you mind sharing the date by which DAAD expects you to accept/decline your award?

The fairly large delta in when the others found out and when I'm finding out (maybe??), indicates to me that this probably won't be good news. Based on their processing rate, I also don't expect the application status to change until monday or tuesday at the earliest. Also, when they confirmed my application, they said results should come at the end of march or beginning of april from Bonn. The scholarship info page at daad says results should be in middle of april. classic daad amiryt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
