We prefer not to receive applications by hand delivery, but if you choose to do so please give them to the reception desk in the lobby on the main/ground floor of the German House (at 871 U.N. Plaza) and ask that the personnel there put your application into the DAAD box; DAAD staff cannot come down to receive your application personally.

Within eight to ten weeks* after the application deadline, you will receive an email to confirm the receipt of your application and whether any documents are missing. If you have not received a confirmation after two weeks, you may contact us to inquire; if we are unable to confirm receipt, at the discretion of the Program Officer we will ask you to resend. You may submit your application in advance of the deadline date, but it will not be processed until after the deadline to assure fairness to all applicants of that scholarship program.

If you need to make (a) correction(s) after you have printed out your completed application form, you feel the choices offered or the space available was not sufficient for your answer, or you wish to submit additional information to any of the sections of the form, we will accept hand-written (typed/word processed) addenda. Please include your full name, the scholarship program name, and application number on each page and make the same number of copies of your addenda as are required for your application form.

If you expect a delay in receiving supplemental materials that require the cooperation of another party (letters of reference, letter of invitation, acceptance to a study program, transcripts, language certificate, etc.), you should submit your application on time with a cover letter letting us know which documents are pending so that you account for all parts of your application. Application packages for which all parts have not been accounted will not be considered. Supplemental materials must be received within one week after the deadline date.
