ricol

Been following this for a while. I got a rejection letter this morning. Applied directly to SSHRC, got a 24.2 in the first round, and a 16.2 in the second. That felt pretty harsh. An 8 point drop? I thought I was in the clear (though remained cautious), especially given a post I read earlier by another independent applicant one who'd gotten 24 in the first round and then 19.3 in the second, and was a awarded SSHRC for 4 years. I'm in the 3rd year of a doc program in clinical psychology at Columbia in New York. I still believe in my research, but I'm very disappointed about the finances.
