Hence my curiosity - whether they are more in favour of grad students in their early studies over grad students in advanced stages of their dissertation.

Yes that's what I thought - you could have up to 6 years of funding. That's why I applied for my fifth year of the PhD. But got really surprised that I was rejected even after previously receiving a CGS - doctoral. Any thoughts on why rejected? Does OGS prefer younger grad students and funding grad students early during their career?

My doctoral program is 5 years long. The university provides funding for all 5 years.in case no scholarships are rewarded to grad students externally. Wondering if it is an assessment of my profile or if the university wants to give the scholarships to other candidates who never received funding or in an earlier stage of their program, since I have been receiving awards externally since my first year down to my fourth year.

Hey there, I have received a 3-year CGS. After completing the three years of CGS, I am in my 4th year of my PhD. I have applied for OGS for my 5th year, but I was not offered the scholarship. Is it unusual that one does not receive an OGS after receiving a CGS?
