Hi all, just rejected with a 16.28/20, no waitlist. Sociology committee three. Oof. These are head scratching numbers this year. Congrats to anyone who found their way in.
I'm so sorry, better luck next year. Not only are these scores arbitrary to us, but to the awards committee, too? Gradschool24, in socio, scored a fellowship with 15.93.

I haven't gotten any emails about anything... concerning... is anyone else in the same boat? I tried following a link from someone in my cohort who just got access to results but when I followed it and entered my email to recover my password, it just said I didn't have any extranet account associated with my email.
I haven't gotten any emails about anything, either. The roll-out took a week (maybe more?) last year, so I wouldn't worry over not receiving an email until Monday passes. I recognize this is not comforting, sorry.

I got results for sshrc. Rejected. This process makes no sense whatsoever. Two years ago I was wailisted with a 12....This year I got rejected with score of 14.3!!!
I'm really sorry for this disappointment. That's a very high score. Last year, some committees awarded students with scores in the 11s...

I got this email too! Thanks for the mini heart attack, SSHRC
The lasting effects of receiving/opening this e-mail is hitting me harder than any double Americano can.

During last year's competition, I was notified of my outcome on May 1st, 2020. I was shortlisted at 12.95/20 --this did not materialize into an award. I was pretty devastated.
Fingers crossed for us all.

Waitlisted at 12.95/20, don't remember which committee. Posting to see if any of you waitlisted hopefuls got awarded.

I got lower than that last year (12.3) and waitlisted. This year with basically the same application, 14.7 and the Bombardier. Hang in there!
I really, really, really appreciate you saying this. Thank you.

Just saw some notes on scores. I got the Bombardier with a 14.5 / 20 if this helps figure out where the barometers are.
Short margins. I got rejected/wait-listed with a 12.95 / 20.

Extranet login information received 6:24 (UBC-O applicant, pacific time zone).
Results posted 8:32.
Rejected, placed on the waiting list with a score of 12.95 / 20.
Just completed first year of my program.
I'm crushed. I hope better luck comes your way, take care, guys.
SSHRC Doctoral 2020-2021
in Waiting it Out
Posted
I've been given a CGS-D, score 17.86, committee 3. I'm in interdisciplinary studies and this is my second time applying. I wish so badly to share this with those who didn't win this arbitrary lottery. I was wait-listed last year, which didn't amount to anything. Those of you who are heavy with disappointment --try to forget and move on. You will get it next year. For real.
My details for those who care:
I'm in second year and this is my second time applying. Last year, I was waitlisted at 12.95. My proposal is almost the exact same but I've since completed doctoral coursework with a GPA of 4.33. I had a strong MA GPA (4.17), too, but a crappy undergraduate GPA. Perhaps, without my doctoral transcript they weighed my undergraduate transcript with more weight?
Also new on this successful application --in comparison to my unsuccessful one last year-- are two refereed pubs, two conferences, a couple more RAships, TAships, research affiliations and my dissertation committee was finalized. I mention this latter part because I think my committee is SSHRC-sexy (one CRC and a Lansdowne Chair in Law).
