My department let me know I was waitlisted on Friday and I just got my letter on the portal. Scored 13.10/20 in committee 3. Better than last year (waitlisted with 11.9/20), so I'll chalk that up as a win. 

Anyone hear of any successful awards for the fellowship (not CGS-D) in committee 3? 

That seems like a high waitlist score! Hopefully you're near the top. I was awarded a fellowship in Committee 3 with a 15.1.

Any news???

I didn't get it, unfortunately. They only gave out 16, oddly enough, and announced it later than they said they would. I'm curious what happened behind the scenes to lead to that.

Anyways, for anyone curious next year: the panel interview was hard. I got grilled a lot on my area of work and why I wanted the scholarship. They've changed the group component, and it was no longer a creative activity but was instead more of a Rhodes-style cocktail hour with the selection committee. Not sure how they used that in the end. 

Best of luck to anyone applying next year!

I'm a direct applicant and haven't heard anything either. Should we expect to?

I'm a direct applicant and haven't heard anything from SSHRC since I submitted my application. Have any of you heard any news from them?

Good luck on your interview! 

Thanks everyone! I'll try to remember to report back so everyone knows what to expect for next year

Did you get to choose which of the three days for the interview? 

I didn't - they told me the day in their email.

Hello, how did you learn this? Were you contacted directly or by your university ?

Apparently, there is a group and one-on-one interview from what I have read before.

Congrats!!!

Thanks! I heard from the Foundation directly. We have to confirm by this week that we’ll attend the interview, so perhaps they’re waiting for everyone to confirm in case someone can’t and more spots open up?

In case anyone is waiting to hear back, I found out today that I have an interview (third year in a row applying..!). Anyone have any insight/ can link to a thread where people have described the interview process before? I have no idea what to expect. Keeping my fingers crossed for you all as well!
