  1. I was in error there. Thanks for correcting.
  2. For everyone figuring out how to accept you may: 1. Open the result letter (it is one of four letters you would have received from SSHRC). 2. Scroll to its bottom to the link for Tri-Agency Research Training Award Holder’s Guide on the SSHRC - Scholarships and Fellowships (sshrc-crsh.gc.ca) 3. Open link and click on through to the guide - NSERC – Tri-Agency Research Training Award Holder’s Guide (nserc-crsng.gc.ca) 4. Click on acceptance or decline of award. For SSHRC, you need to email appropriate program contact - scholarshipsadministration@sshrc-crsh.gc.ca 5. What you need to send in the email (apart from file number) is listed under acceptance or decline of award. 6. Once you email them, you'll get an automated response from SSHRC. Mine said they will write back in 10 days. ... PS: Your institution may have other documents for you to fill in. Mine got to fill in a first installment form.
  3. As you note - you cannot hold the two together. Therefore, if you wish to commence your SSHRC award from May this year, you will have to forego the final installment of OGS. Unless there are pressing reasons, it would be best if you begin the SSHRC award from Fall 2021.
  4. Also, if it also comes down to the field this person was applying in. If it were, for instance, Psychology, then SSHRC would be skewed in her favor. Around 15-20% of all SSHRC goes to Psychology. I am not sure about FRQSC.
  5. 2 in 1, I guess. 1028 people got in out of 2300+ applicants.
  6. Why is that weird? The committees for both are different and both involve subjective assessment of applications. In such a scenario, one's application is likely to fall in the hands of a person who appreciates it differently from another. It's perfectly understandable. I was also struck by this - two people put up scores their scores for sociology, and that with the lesser score seemed to have got the funding. However, I am putting it down to: 1. One of them misreading or mistyping their score here, or 2. One of them mistyping their subject (people from different education systems often seem to jumble anthropology with sociology). However, if it were me, I would write to SSHRC and seek a clarification.
  7. Hi everyone, i am a first year law PhD student. I have received the CGS-D with a 18.93/20 in Committee 5. My details: I have 8 years of teaching experience in my field, extensive conference experience, strong recommendations, few peer reviewed publications, double Masters (straight As in both). I have come late to the PhD world so it was possible for me to build up this profile which I understand is not the situation of most applicants. Congratulations to all who have been awarded fellowships this year! I guess experience eventually counts so keep at it (go for grad conferences, put yourself out there, publish if you can).
