  1. gahhh from U of A and know I won but still no letter - anybody in Edmonton still not receive their letter? I'm getting worried it was lost and I need to scan it and send it to my school to start payments!
  2. Hey congrats!!! Mine stated CGS-D too. Is that the 35,000 per year one?
  3. Just found out I won a bombardier! Here at the U of A !
  4. Lol this whole system sounds truly awful, the more we learn about it
  5. just to confirm - FGSR said they wouldn't tell you today? Did they seem to imply they would email you at any point or did they say wait for the letter? Also from U of A haha....
  6. Yes, please keep us posted! I have maxed out my emails to the awards office now...haha ?
  7. It's true - last year my institution let successful applicant know only, and all unsuccessful applicants had to wait for the ominous letter (I even emailed them last year and they told me they didn't know when others had already been told at my institution they were successful)
  8. SAME! I've literally put off editing a paper until today (when it is due!!) because I've been so stressed and anxious. I spent the week in and out of bed in a pretty depressed and anxious state, watching tv.
  9. Yes! Thanks for bringing up these points.
  10. Yeah, I re-emailed and my awards office said that they'll have the results in "a couple weeks time".... ah!!
  11. they are torturing us on purpose now LOL
  12. This is a good question. If I don't win, then I'll be spending the next year also living below the poverty line (off a 30,000 stipend but 6,000 of that will be going to tuition). I don't know what I'll do, as I'm deep in debt on my credit card and student loans already. Not winning a SSHRC will mean I cannot do my planned exchange abroad in third year as well. Plan B is basically to cut down all expenses from an already meagre budget and figure out how to survive for the next year, and re-apply to SSHRC. I'm glad everyone is sharing so honestly and openly about this! These conversations are needed!
  13. I can confirm SSHRC has not mailed the letters yet, as I asked them if it would be possible to change the address my letter is being sent to and they said this morning that would be fine. Going a little crazy over here
  14. nope. I emailed SSHRC, my grad chair and my university awards office and none of them have heard the results yet. I'm in Alberta, if that helps. Already seems like they are behind this year.
