    Does anyone know how many awards there are for CGS and PGS?

    There were 1700 applicants last year.  Something like 390 got CGS and 320 got PGS.  The numbers are not exact.  You can lookup the results from prior years.

    You are not supposed to announce your name, share the letter etc.....but apparently ppl just did on twitter....search nserc and look for the latest

    Yes, I seen that after your post that mentioned twitter/linkedin.  This is why I was asking.

    based on how things are going...likely....I am in 201...it seems no one from 201 likes public outreach on twitter/linkedin...

    Is there a rule that we are not supposed to publicly announce we are winners (with our actual name) until the final results are released?  I thought I read this somewhere.

    (if we get the scholarship)

    hahaa, this can effectively lead to DDoS attack on their server, if many of us here start using auto-refresh plugin with a short time-interval.

    Also, be aware that if there are too many requests from an IP, their server could potentially ban that IP.

    Its set for every 5 min.  Not a short refresh interval.  I just get notified every 5 minutes to resubmit the form.

    Now I'm not so sure that its a good thing I'm waiting for results. Appears to be random or maybe by committee? Who knows. Either way - probs going to get carpal tunnel after this with the mashing of the refresh button.

    I got an auto-refresh extension for chrome.  ?

    Last name 'T', they just updated the folder and I didn't get the PGS-D ( am a Canadian at a US university in first year)! Good luck to the rest!

    Sorry to hear this!  I hope that you can apply again next year!  I have had many rejections in my life...keep trying!

    I still dont have a folder? Should you just be able to hover over the blue bar where it says "Applicant" beside "Home"?

    Yes.  When you put your cursor over "Applicant" a menu should open.

    Sorry lol. Hopefully my next post will have good news/results.

    I hope so too.  I would love to hear the news that you got the award!!  ?  I guess it is still happening...maybe slower today than yesterday.  Now instead of doing all A's in a single batch they are doing it in batches according to the the second name letter...Aa...Az.

    Results apparently posted for last name starts with “A” at least. Mine still not posted.

    At least it is starting...  About six hours until they get to the 'S''s

    Hey thanks! and thank you to everyone who voiced congratulations. I am sorry I don't mean to seem too braggy earlier I just wanted to let people know that the truth is out there somewhere! Hoping you all have shiny CGS-D's to tell me about tomorrow haha!

    You didn't brag at all!  Tomorrow, there will be a bunch of us sharing our news.  Good luck everyone.  I think I will try to stay away from this site for the evening.  2 hours until 12:00 am E.T.!!

    That also could be it. Maybe it just coinsided with my browser crashing. Are you also an 'S'? If so we are deeply in this together.

    Yes, I am an S.  It is fixed for me now.

  12. Actually, I think what was happening is that their system was creating a folder for me.  I was technically logged in on their side.  Now I have the empty folder, whereas before I did not.  It shows that the folder was created at 9:30 pm ET AND they sent me a new email with my username (no changes, just a copy of the same email).
