I am in Waterloo and I got my letter today. I was successful with a score of 27.7, which gave me a SSHRC-CGS. Best of luck to everyone still waiting, and my sincerest condolences to those who got bad news today.
-
I see that last year SSHRC announced it had mailed the doctoral letters on April 21st. Sigh. Come on, SSHRC! Put us out of our misery already!

Same. My MS Word file is blinking at me accusingly, but I just minimize and refresh GradCafe and my e-mail. Rinse and repeat x1000. I wish I could be productive under this level of anxiety!
-
Judging by the rapid uptake in responses to this thread, I suspect that people's tensions/anxiety may have reached the boiling point. Gah!! As was said earlier, I realize that this is a competition, but best of luck to all of you.
-
Yes, exactly. Sooner, if your grad studies department releases the results of the competition by e-mail. I know that last year I was informed of the results of my MA-SSHRC application by e-mail days before I got the letter in the mail.
-
No, sorry... it was today. About an hour ago.

My friend just informed me that he received the following e-mail from SSHRC: "The doctoral awards competition is still in process. The results of the competition will be in mail by the beginning of next week. If your mailing address has changed, please inform us as soon as possible so that we may keep your file up to date" So it looks as though SSHRC is sticking to their original claim to have the results in the mail by late April. Now here's to hoping that someone in the grad studies department will have mercy on me and e-mail me the results before the letter arrives by snail mail!

So, who wants to bite the bullet and e-mail SSHRC for an update?
-
When do SSHRC results typically get announced in relation to the FQRSC results? Around the same time? A couple weeks later?
-
I am going out of my mind with anxiety waiting for the results of the competition. I can't believe that it's only April 17th! I have a sickening feeling that we won't be finding out until May. [cringe]
-
I just sent an e-mail to SSHRC Fellowships, and I received the following reply: "Good afternoon, Thank you for your email. The Doctoral Awards competition is still in progress. The results of the competition will be mail end of April beginning of May 2012. If your mailing address has changed, please inform us as soon as possible so that we may keep your file up to date." Sigh. I had hoped for an earlier release of tension this year, but it looks like we'll be waiting for at least another week or so.

Hey there! Don't worry, this is perfectly normal. When I saw that my application had mysteriously vanished last year, I had a full-blown panic attack and called SSHRC. They said that once the competition is closed then the "application" is removed from the page. I hope this helps!
-
I e-mailed my confirmation to SSHRC about a week ago. I got an automatic notification indicating that they got my letter and that it would be answered in the order that it was received, but I never received any other response. Is this normal? I hate to e-mail them again asking about it, since it'll just worsen the backlog of e-mails they have to go through, but I'm paranoid. I really don't want to decline OGS until I get a confirmation e-mail from sshrc.

I also just got an e-mail from my grad office that I got the SSHRC-MA!! Congratulations on those who've been successful so far, and good luck to those still waiting.
