    I want to make the announcement on social media but we’ve been told we can’t for now. Yet, I see many people who announced it already. When is the public announcement?

    like july 

    you should wait you could get in trouble

    Hi guys, I'm waiting for the results of the Vanier CGS NSERC too! In case I get it, do you know if I can change the funding start date? I marked May 1 2019 but I want to reschedule for next year January, Thank you!

    I think when you accept the award they ask the start date again

    worst case scenario you just email Vanier and they'll be okay with that

  3. About last year, to make things clear: 

    - We were supposed to know on March 30 and then the Vanier website said "early April". The results came out on April 5 around lunchtime. 

    - We got an email saying the portal had been updated. You won't know if you won in that email. HOWEVER, if on ResearchNet you have a second line to click that says something like "View offer", then I believe it means you got it (or else there is no offer; only a "results" line to click...something like that). 

    - Your institution will know at the same time as you--so don't worry if you see the dean or your advisor in the hallway lol 

    - For the regular SSHRC award, your institution knows BEFORE you, because they email them at the same time as they send the letters by mail. Email your award coordinator and they'll let you know if you got it :)

    - Regarding the tweet about a scholarship...it was a SSHRC MASTER'S CGS (results are out April 1 at midnight). The prof said it was a "doctoral" award but they got it wrong. 

    let me know if you have more questions and GOOD LUCK!!

    I think my confidence went down because I did not get forwarded for the Trudeau scholarship at my uni. I expected that the process would be harder for Trudeau, but since I was forwarded for Vanier, I thought I would also be forwarded for Trudeau. I will try again for Trudeau next year though. But if I don't get Vanier this time, and I get a smaller scholarship, I won't have any choice than accepting the smaller scholarship in order to live. I am moving out of town to pursue my PhD so I need money. But if I accept FRQSC or SSHRC or OGS this year, that makes me not eliglble for Vanier.

    If you get FRQSC or OGS you are still eligible to reapply for the Vanier. If you get SSHRC, then no.

    Yeah, I saw that two years ago, two people in the same département at one uni got Vanier. So it kinda reassures me. 

    both were supervised by the same prof?

    Oh my...another student (with the same supervisor as I do) also got forwarded to Ottawa at my uni. He's a 2nd or 3rd year PhD student while I am still a master's student. He has tons of publications. I know Vanier takes the career stage into consideration (I am only beginning un grad school) but this makes me anxious. :( 

    I don't know if two students from the same lab ever got the Vanier in the exact same year lol

  8. honestly I believe the best leadership experiences are the ones that helped YOU improve 

    and if you had to go above and beyond to get that idiosyncratic experience, even better 

    of course, there's the whole explaining around that (the before, during, after) that is important

    It's hard not to think about this scholarship. Do you think it's easier to get a prof position if you got Vanier?

    I would say that having a ton of publications is better than the Vanier to get an academic position
