In Montreal we use the word sexy all time to qualifiy ideas... "You've gotta have a sexy subject..."

My friend (a Ph D student) in Montreal got her letter, but nobody I know in the Masters got a letter yet.

I know my candidature was strongly recommanded, but still I haven't had an answer yet... and I've learned to not take things for granted! Any other francos here ?

I did an hour ago, don't worry I'll publish their answer as soon as I get it... even if I don't need it anymore. Solidarity! AL

I'm not sure I believe this. I'll e-mail the SSHRC. We'll see.

Thanks for replying. At université de Montréal everybody's clueless.

How did you know ?

The rain lasted about an hour, heavy rain. Now it's sunny, 20 degrees and there's pollen all over the place. I didn't get my letter today... I was hoping for a cold beer this afternoon, but I'll keep working instead... nothing to celebrate for... yet! Good luck to you all. Alex

Montreal bagel and cream cheese here. Big thunderstorm in Montreal right now... the mailman's gonna be late ! Anyway it will arrive tomorrow while I'm out for a lab reunion.

It means that there are a lot of master's applications then. Its my first time, pretty stressful.

Something doesn't work : "A total of 7,957 applications for master’s, doctoral and postdoctoral scholarship and fellowship support were adjudicated at SSHRC in 2010-11." (http://www.sshrc.ca/site/whatsnew-quoi_neuf/sshrc_news-nouvelles_crsh-eng.aspx) via http://twitter.com/SSHRC_CRSH

Thank you all for the information. I'll let you know about the letter's arrival in Montreal (when I receive it). I'm a Master student. Alex
