Thanks. I got the extranet login 30 mins ago and it says the results were posted on there 6 days ago.

I got results for sshrc. Rejected. This process makes no sense whatsoever. Two years ago I was wailisted with a 12....This year I got rejected with score of 14.3!!!

haha yeah exactly!

Just got the message...failed to get it. Here is what is interesting. Last year I submitted the exact same application and was wait listed with a score of 12.2. This is why I decided to submit the exact same one since it seemed I was so close. However, this year I got a 9.6... actually, arguably this year I had a better application since I had won OGS... but didn't seem to matter.
-
I can't tell if this makes me feel better... given the human component...its possible then that they may not finish by the end of their work day, which means...another weekend.
-
In exact same position...and I am also direct applicant (though in the U.S. ) and committee 2... I have only seen one person who won an award from committee 2.

did you find out by email or by login in? congrats btw!
-
Has ANYONE received an email from SSHRC saying that their results are posted? from what I can tell have people only found out either by longing in themselves or by their department?

I mentioned this in another post, but to my surprise, there were 4 who were transferring out of their current programs that were on Notre Dame's waitlist and some of which had been accepted to U T Austin and UVA. My impression is that transferring is becoming much more common and I think desirable to a certain extent: programs want students to finish in 5 or 6 years, and this will be more likely if you already have one or two years of doctoral studies under your belt.

Is it ever acceptable to back out of an offer after the deadline?

I will address the assumption that institutions are hesitant of taking transfers from PhD programs: it's simply not true. This is actually something that I had believed before this application season, but I found out, while vising departments this year, that MANY people that were admitted were PhD transfers. One of the people that got accepted at UVA and was waitlisted at Notre Dame was on their 4th year of their Phd (!). -
where you in your letter did it specify the committee?
-
Sorry, forgot to post: committee 2.

Got waitlisted with a 12.2
