  1. Thanks for the kind words! Yes, it's nice to at least know the outcome and relax. They may be going in order of committee number, but hopefully you all don't have to wait long!
  2. Yes, I got the email directly from NSERC. I got an email from NSERCScholarships-BoursesCRSNG@NSERC-CRSNG.GC.CA and it had a link to set up the account and see the result pdf
  3. I guess today is the day after all! Just got the email - didn't win unfortunately but it's nice to know. Good luck to all of you!! It says I was in committee 168 - Geosciences btw. Not sure how that happened as that's not my field lol
  4. People from previous years have said that the "received" status never changes and has no correlation with your result. So, I wouldn't use that to say you didn't get it!
  5. It could be! It was the 26th last year. I looked at the old threads and it has been the last Tuesday of the month for the past two years... but I guess last year they didn't release it until after 5 pm EST
  6. Dang they really got us with the maintenance ending at 12 pm!
  7. Ah ok thanks, I was using some other site lol. I haven't previously applied and when I try to reset my password the account doesn't exist so I guess we'll get an email to set them up
  8. Judging by previous years, no. But I'll still be nervously refreshing everything then anyways!
  9. I also used the same email and the pin from my application. It looks like the maintenance may be over, but I can't see anything on that other portal now either. I assume we just have to wait for an email
  10. Nope, as far as I know, no email has gone out! The application portal apparently won't update at all and there is a separate portal that is under maintenance for another hour that I think we will access results through.
  11. Same here. I had been doing well but now I'm really having a hard time focusing
  12. Haha same! I've already worked out and cleaned my house and now I'm trying to get some actual work done without checking this site and the extranet every 5 minutes
  13. It did say 12 EST! I checked too and have been trying to distract myself since lol
  14. Wait, your supervisor told you for this round? Or they told you in a previous competition?
  15. Yup, same here. I'm sure we'll get an email telling us when it's updated, but I still check once a day just in case!
  16. It definitely depends on your university, department, and where your funding is coming from. For example, in the department I'm in, if the award is lower than the funding you already receive from them, the source of your funding changes but the amount of income you receive does not. Basically, you are just saving the department money by winning the award, which I found out last year 🙃. However, if your funding is coming directly from a supervisor/industry, they may be able to continue supplying your funding on top of your award - depending on the terms of grants/contracts.
  17. I didn't realize it had been so long, but that makes sense and is really sad. At this point, PGS D is less than the minimum funding at my school (and of course they don't stack). It's really only worth applying for the low chance of a CGS D, otherwise I'll still be just as poor lol. My supervisor mentioned that they signed a petition calling on the federal/provincial governments to increase research student funding so hopefully all of this noise turns into some results!
