    I got a CGS D!! Committee 197 - Electrical Engineering. I'm over the moon right now! I knew it was going to be really competitive so I didn't get my hopes up, but this makes a huge difference for me honestly. 

    Also for those curious:

    Currently at 2.5 years in grad school total, did a transfer from MSc to PhD at McMaster for Engineering Physics. I previously received a CGS M, I have two first author papers, a second author paper in Nature, four conference papers, and three patents. Also if it's relevant my research topic is new lasers for optical satellite communication with the Optical SatCom Consortium (https://www.opticalsatcom.com/).

    Congratulations to everyone who made it this far, this is hella competitve and while I know it's not possible for everyone to get an award even if that'd be dope, I hope any of you who didn't get it can reapply and get it next year. Remember to take some time for self care regardless of the results, this has been extremely stressful on everyone I feel. 

    I would have been surprised if something like this didn't get funded. I'm super bummed about my rejection. Certainly will be moving out of Canada after my PhD there's absolutely nothing here for applied research although this application does give some hope.

  2. Should the status show as "Recieved" on the portal through which we submitted our application? I got email from SGS, UofT confirming that my application was sent to National level. Wondering why I didn't get the email.

    I don't expect to get it. It's my first year applying. I don't think I'm anywhere near the metrics I've seen are necessary.

    So if I don't, I'm hopeful I'll get some understanding of where I rank or where my weak points are and can reapply next year.

    Don't loose hope. It all depends on the application and LORs.

    I will be unable to focus at all today, cause Idk when they're sending out notices, and like, do I wait the whole day.... OGS at Western announces on the 29th, so its like, not good lol

    Unfortunately we are all on the same boat. Lets keep our fingers crossed. All the best to you and all the applicants.

    Yes, I know the nserc portal won't give me the results but I saw that it's been modified March 24th, and I've been overthinking it since then. ?

     

     

    I checked mine and it says the same... modified on March 24
