    Hey, I find housing prices have risen considerably in the last few years in montreal. Avoid craigslist and just walk around with a cell phone calling numbers in windows and you will find better deal.
  2. You might also want to check your school of graduate studies web page because they probably set the policy for the whole school. most schools that fund will have something called an incentive policy, which means they will let you keep at least a fraction of what you win.

    Yes. I did. However I haven't managed to get all the payment forms through yet. It's late enough in the summer to be difficult for me to obtain the required signatures from my department. *&^$*&%$&^$

    That was a number that was generated on your actual application. Don't worry about it.

    It _does_ actually seem to be the same as the application number i received in confirmation after submitting my application. It is not the same as the internal use number listed on my application.

    I don't think your award number is the same as your application number. I'm sorry. This number is sent in your letter if you've won an award and apparently the schools get it with the results.. all you need in your acceptance email seems to eb your name and that number but the rest of the information (such as type of award and duration) couldn't hurt. Afterward there are forms to fill out (which ones are depending on where you are located) available from the guide at the link i posted a few days ago..

    You will need your award number which you can hopefully get from your school's DGS. There's a guide online here: http://www.sshrc.ca/site/using-utiliser ... r-eng.aspx The first thing you need to do is send an email accepting the award with your award number tp: fellowships@sshrc-crsh.gc.ca

    one more thing, I just got confirmation from SSHRC that I can begin processing my payments without my acceptance letter (since the one they sent to my Canadian address seems to be lost in the mail). This must be good news for some of you who are in similar situations so I thought I would share it.

    Thanks! I have a question now for anyone who has been in communication with SSHRC.. is it still possible to accept the award for this term (the Summer 2009 term beginning in May)? I've been living off borrowed money this month so I'm hoping this is the case, however the wording of all the award documentation makes it look like you need to accept in advance of the term (clearly impossible when notices went out this late). Anyone know the answer to this?

    Yay! No letter here yet, but my landlord in the US told me over the phone that something arrived there, and I was offered a SSHRC for my remaining two years of study! 23.9 in Fine Arts for what that's worth (clearly, very little).
