Ohh...so stress will just prolongate. Good luck! From where you applied?

Some news from Europe/ Balkan? My status still same...paper copies received, I applied for PhD.

Yes, keeping me waiting But better than a rejection! Still no word. 

I'm applying from the US

[maelia8]

Still nothing for long-term (academic year) US doctoral research grants, eh? Or does somebody know something I don't?

In your earlier post, you mentioned that you have received mail about your selection from DAAD indian office. Is it so, as I have also applied for PhD sandwich program but have not received any such mail.

Do anyone from DAAD india have received such mail regarding PhD sandwich.  Now another confusion 

 

No email here! I was interviewed on Feb 1st. I was told in a reply mail that result will be out in the first week of April. ?

I got an email this morning directing me to the portal. I got rejected for the short term research. Apparently funded ~30 of the roughly 80 applicants. They have a 10-point rating scale and I was told I barely missed the cut at 8.5.

I really don't know how  to react.  I was told three different probable date in three different mail. I think they are  still busy  with making decision. people from India who had interview on 30th January  already got  their result. might  be our  turn now.

Sorry to hear about the rejection.

In the meantime, no new info here and it's the end of the work day. With the Easter right around the corner, I guess I'll see you guys on Tuesday and I'm keeping my fingers crossed for everybody!

[maelia8]

In Germany everything's closed for Good Friday and Easter Monday, so we won't have news until Tuesday at the earliest. Fingers crossed!

The portal indicates "Selection Made" - though nothing more. (US long-term research) FYI

Update: now it's blank. Sigh. I had forgotten how stomachache-inducing this waiting is.

[praveen5321468]

I also got rejected   In Indian applicant from fancy and reputed University got selected.  I think applicants whose professor have good contact with DAAD only got selected.. Rest forget about it .

No changes yet. Did you receive email notification about the change? (Just lazy to check the portal everytime)

No, I checked the portal. It says funding and there's an option for accepting or rejecting the award, but no letter yet.

By the way, may I ask where did you apply and what is your research area?
