yes and those stats that were posted about the number of publications in the Vanier (2019-2020) thread made me really anxious/hopeless

sure you can use the same

is there a video/recording of that panel? thanks for the info!

on top of 5 publications and 8 "competitive" conference presentations I have no chance of winning

huh...5 publications?!

it's all electronic -- through ResearchNet

yup it disappeared for me as well I think it's because at this point it's all hard copy

no, still in peer review; results are out March 30

ResearchNet says March 30 thanks for asking them!

Thanks!

Vanier is end of March so I don't see how regular SSHRC could be before April...

no limit of winners per university (but quota for nominations per university) for instance McGill could nominate 100 applicants but then it doesn't mean that SSHRC will only allow 20 of those to win the national competition (all 100s could win technically) of course there is a limited number of overall winners

Your heart will have to wait 24 days haha!

Master's FRQSC? My letter of offer was dated April 24, 2015 Hope that helps!

For the regular SSHRC doctoral you need two faculty members to complete a short PDF with specific instructions (like a normal LOR). There is no leadership component to this application.

I totally agree with that! You can even tell your leadership referees to take advantage of the Arial 10 rule Also, make sure you check the instructions around mid-June, because last year the *new* instructions were published around that time (so we never know what could change)

ONE MONTH!

Make sure you start early; that's a lot of applications!

Good luck!

To be fair, it is a pretty long application (if you want to make it a good one). But if you believe you have the dossier, go for it--you have nothing to lose!

the way it worked for me is that I had to apply through ResearchNet (to my institution) and then my institution forwarded (nominated) my application to Vanier perhaps other institutions tell you before that you will be nominated and then ask you to apply through ResearchNet but I'm pretty sure most schools let everyone apply and then they pick a few applications (the best ones depending on their quota) to send off to Ottawa

good question... probably no limits... For the Vanier there's a quota per university for the nomination and then no limits for the winners so it's likely the same process?

wow so many steps and letters...

isn't it only for direct applicants? I got an email from my university...

yes you can but my concern is the US versus Canadian schools?
