What's their research? Tell me and I can give you some pointers.

Excluding other utitlies like laundry, gas, and internet. I live in Canada, and my average comes down to, shockingly (high), $55 to $60 dollars per week, averaging out to 220 to 240 per month. I need to cut this down! I don't even go out! I coook all the time.

If you got offer to at least one place, you are high. If not you are probably in the bottom.

Well you got three offers already, you are probably on top of the waitlist.

Sucks for me then lol

If you were offered at at least one university for the award, you are on top of the alternate, if on the other hand you've got only "no offers" and "alternate", it's not looking good...

Flip that upside down for me.

Now another question, how many alternates typically are there...? I could probably be at the very bottom of alternates.

How often do people decline anyways?

LOl I pray that your sources are good.

LOL, i was waitlisted at MAC! Very surprised. Anyone know the latest they will get back to me?

I was put on "no offered" for waterloo =)...but I rejected their offer for admission long ago, so maybe that may have ben a factor?

Creativity. No matter how much it pays, I really don't think I can do the same thing over and over again for years. I need a career that can give me something new everytime.

Just answered my own question...

Just wondering, do they usually go from "alternate -- > not offered" or can they release "not offered" on the first rounds?

LOl that's rare. If that happens you have to decline. I am pretty sure you can only hold the award at the designated you applied for.

Only one university got back to me and I rejected them already lol...not looking good.

TakeruK, you are going to be my go-to guy for anything related to academic information!

When our fate is decided.

Perhaps rejecting them

LOl today UBC sent me an email about CGS, which is funny since I haven't even heard back from the admission people.

Never let go of that POI, ever. He went to bat for you, this is the kind of supervisor you want.

I love these underdog stories! So inspiring.

Anyone want to share some success stories? Such as maybe you were a C- student in high school, but now you are on the top of the world or you struggled finciainally a lot because parents died or wouldn't help you with tuition and now you are making it big?

Yes I did. I got accepted into a top program (rank 1 in the entire country) and got rejected by rank 2 and rank 3 "all rounded schools", and I was accepted everywhere else.
