I noticed that a new png file titled ''spcommon[1]'' was added yesterday in my extranet, but the content of the image is very weird (a bunch of signs pictured.? makes no sense) so maybe it will soon be released and they are testing their system again by uploading weird stuff in preparation

Thanks for the info! I will add it to my resume as well then. Last year it was released on the extranet between June16-19. I don't remember if they send out another email to let you know that a new document was added tho.. I think I learned about it by staying updated here on last year's post. It gives you the score in each category, your ranking in each category and your global ranking

I applied for PGS-D as I am at a foreign institution (already enrolled, 2nd year, got rejected last year) but got CGS-D. I will have to decline because I am obviously not eligible (In my understanding this means someone else will get bumped to CGS-D, so be on the look out for that if you are in committee 202) but can I still get the PGS-D? Anyone has ever been in this situation or heard of it? Also asking for a friend - anyone heard of someone keeping CGS-D while enrolled in a foreign institution (I know I am asking about an impossible miracle lol but feels weird to even be offered this award considering I am already enrolled and in my 2nd year?) Thanks! Also to those who did not get it this year: Last year I ranked above 40 in committee 202 (cutoff is around 28) for PGS-D and this year got bumped to a CGS-D award, which if I understand means around top 10-15. I went directly from bachelor to PhD so was already at a disadvantage in terms of master thesis description and publications. So please do not get discouraged, anything can happen. I am struggling to understand how I got such a huge difference in score this year and curious to see my ranking in June. From this experience, I would say you can significantly increase your ranking by rewording key elements of your application.

Aerospace engineering in the UK

For those who were sucessfull, If you received a full tuition from your school, do you usually include it in your application or do you not disclose it? I wonder how that can impact an application. Thanks!

Good luck to you as well!!

Well we are in the same boat and looks like we had similar profiles! I hope we could see how they evaluate us to know what we are missing other than the MSc thesis.

Im 202 and last name starts with Z and sadly no awards for me either. I went straight from a bachelor to a PhD in the UK so my hopes were low, but I thought I had good chances since I received several scholarships and prizes, graduated first of class during my undergrad, had 2 years of industrial experience and had 1 first author peer-reviewed conference paper and co-wrote lecture notes/guides for a master course and had 2 industrial internal reports as well as extracurricular activities and implication in my community. I will work hard and try again next year. Congrats to everyone who got it

Did they update it just now or you just saw your result? I thought they would have stopped uploading them at this time

Did you receive an email from NSERC with a link to an extranet portal (it's a different portal than the one you submitted your application)? I would suggest writing to your university asap to make sure your application was sucessful for the national competition. Best of luck I hope it gets resolved quickly for you

For those still waiting on the login email, my last name starts with Z and I just got it

I am also applying from the UK and same ?
