STEP BY STEP GUIDE TO FILL THE DAAD APPLICATION FORM - EPOS SCHOLARSHIP 2023

[@chukwuazorchukwuebuka1166]

Thank you very much Barbara, yes after filling the form how do I submit it with my other document Because u didn't show us or say anything how to submit the daad form

[@BarbaraAboagye]

You apply directly to the school. I talk about it in the first part of the video and also the end based on the program you are applying to. It’s one of the documents you submit to the school. 1. Visit the university website of the program you want to study - Note it should be part of the eligible program. 2. Apply and submit this as part of the documents based on their admission procedure.

[@stanleyokonkwo2435]

I love how you went straight to the point, Keep it up! ♥

Thank you a lot Barbara for all your explanation it was really helping, I just have one question please if we could apply for more than one programm ?

[@BarbaraAboagye]

You can! And explain in your motivation letter

[@emmanuelonche832]

The only thing stopping me from a DAD scholarship is the proof of employment. I did one graduate training and I have the certificate. But where I work now, is more site work and no certificate to show for it. Even if I get the certificate the name of the site (dredging) can not be found on the internet. What should I do? Thank you

[@BarbaraAboagye]

It's not a certificate they are looking for. They are looking for proof of employment so Ask the company to write a letter for that effect.

[@nanadakwa6150]

Hi Barbara, on the same question, if the employer has already given you a reference letter, do you still need another letter for proof of employment from the same company?

[@amnastyleblog]

Thank you ❤

[@taniahtinni6052]

Hi Barbara! Can you please tell me how to enclose experience certificate?

[@BarbaraAboagye]

Hi Taniah, What is the experience certificate and why do you want to enclose it in the application form? You can add it as a separate document or merge it as a single pdf with the forms. Kindly give me additional details so I can advise you better.

[@NamsifueliJuliusLey]

Hey Barbara, thank you for taking us through the application form. I have a question, So on the DAAD form they ask which academic referees have submitted a report for the application but on the application requirements/documents there is no option to submit an academic reference? How can one submit the academic reference?

[@BarbaraAboagye]

The reference is sent to the school when you apply for it.Check the playlist and look at the video on how to apply to a school

Hi Barbara,I’m struggling to find out where the EPOS application is made,I understand that the university im applying to will receive my application via UNI-Assist.

Hello Barbaraa. Thank you so much for your video. I am from one of the Asian countries .It is helpful for me to fill the application form. I would like to ask one thing . Do I need to submit research proposal letter to apply Master degree ? I am not sure how to answer the question related to outline of proposal. I look forward to hearing from you. Thanks

[@clementamuquandoh1757]

Thank you very much for the guidelines. However, i need your guide on this, I am interested in three key programmes from three Universities with varying closing application dates and programme duration. Am i expected to center my answers on my first priority programme? For instance, question 6 on the DAAD form. How best do i respond to such a question? Given the scenario stated earlier. Next Question: Since I intend to apply to three with vary closing date, I am thinking i have to tick yes to Q13.C and provide the name of the schools which follows up my first priority school and respond "Yet to apply" to Q13.D Thank you.

[@BarbaraAboagye]

Yes. You will need to include the details of all the universities you are applying to and talk about them. You will submit the same document to all the universities so ensure those details are present. Do you have your answer?

[@oseiagyemang6635]

I checked for the requirements and I saw IELTS or TOEFL, how can one apply for the scholarship if he doesn't have any of these tests. Also, they want people whose certificate is not more than 6 years to apply. Well, I completed tertiary in 2015, is there a way I can still apply for the school? Thanks

[@BarbaraAboagye]

1. Some universities will allow for a waiver if you are from an English speaking country, if they don't you need to write the exams 2. Still give it a try and also apply for other scholarships. Check the video on how to find tuition free universities in Germany. All the best

Thank you for this video. Please I saw a message on the DAAD page. " When applying for more than one postgraduate course(maximum 3 courses), you have to submit one motivation letter explaining why you are applying for the specific course and why you chose that priority". Does this statement mean that after I have written the motivation for each program? I will then write one motivation letter that will carry the two programs. Is that Barbara?

[@BarbaraAboagye]

No, you only write one for all the three program and submit the same document for all three programs

[@Teee_01]

@@BarbaraAboagye thank you. Another thing, In one of the programs it states that I need to write a Research proposal. Does it have to be for Germany alone or a blend of Germany and Nigeria

[@BarbaraAboagye]

@@Teee_01 I don't understand what you mean by a blend. A research proposal should focus on the research you plan to do for your studies including a state of the art of the topoc(literature review), objectives of the study, methodology which should include the methods to use (how you plan to achieve the objectives), materials and timeline.

[@mimezinmar2666]

Is that ok to write " Written Examination" for "Type of final examination"?

Secondly, part of the documents required for the scholarship is a copy of passport, I don't have one now but I have a national identity card, can I use that instead and can this possibly affect my chances of being selected??

Hello Barbara, very intuitive video, please I want to enquire concerning the reference. Will they be contacted?

[@BarbaraAboagye]

It’s important you include the right details of your reference and have prior conversation with them before you submit their names. They are always contacted if you don’t personally submit the letter of reference and if you do, they maybe contacted if there is a need. Always ensure the information you submit is legit.

On page 3 of this page, bit.ly/3uVAmBI, pschology students can apply for Master of Analysis and Design of Social Protection Systems at Hochschule Bonn-Rhein-Sieg. 1 a) You could even apply to the Peace and Conflict Studies (PACS) at Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg Faculty of Humanities, Social Science & Education. 2. Email the school in question and ask them which DAAD scholarship are they affiliated to. Normally you should find all these information on their websites. 3.
