Any news from UofA... I was told by the grad awards "We do not have the results back yet. Should be very soon!" The anxiety is killing me!!

Even NSERC PGS/CGS-D results are out, I guess!

Finally the result week!!... I m soo excited tht hopefully by the next weekend we will have the result...

Thats a rude answer. Why can't they just give direct answer to the question!

I am a PGS/CGS applicant....If the status of your online application is "Received" then it has been forwarded to NSERC by the university.

So does all the students get notified by FoGSR or only the successful applicants? I know NSERC notifies all the students.. I stay in the west so most probably, I will be notified by FoGSR or department.

I talked with my grad advisor and she havent heard frm NSERC yet... I guess, NSERC is a bit late this year. Though. most probably I will be electronically mailed before I get the NSERC letter so hopeful of learning the outcome by this week!

Thats bad newz tht PGS-CGS result will be known around April.. :(.. I will personally talk with my grad advisor today afternoon and let u all knw... By tht time, if any one else has other information plz post!

and to add the same was true for 2010 year as well... ppl strted receiving letter arnd March-20 so if the NSERC is on time I guess, we will start receiving letter frm Monday... Ottawa guyz get ready,,,

yeah... I think the grad office shud have the CGS-PGS results by Monday atleast... I stay in the west so will have to wait longer than u guyz, I guess..

Good luck to everyone... I m planning to ask my graduate student advisor abt NSERC result maybe tomorrow or Monday...I guess, the university will have the result though unofficial before us! If something's out, I will let u all knw..

So does any one have an idea about the proposed number of CGS-PGS awards this year since the EAP plan has come to an end?

yeah we shud hear something arnd March 20th... I guess, ppl living near Ottawa will be amongst the first to hear abt the results, Though, I feel tht for PGS-D application we will hear first from our department ... Good luck to everyone

Hey Silicon, its not difficult to find graduate student advisor of your department.... Go to the host institute's website you are applying from and go to the department page... There go in the faculty section and check the administrative staff.... You can find the detail of graduate student advisor from their.. I don't think dean of faculty will be able to help in this matter... By the way I am applying for doctoral scholarship and not Post-Doctoral!

Ohh great!... I have 5 conference-publications, 1 journal and chapters contributions in 2 books.... I have other presentations as well but I didnt include most of them as we have maximum 2 page limit where we have to include everything publns, applicant statement and others so lack of space.... snowshoes how did u manage to include even ur presentations/workshop details in such a small space limit? Hey nineaxe by grad secretary due to mean graduate coordinator of the department... I guess, they come to knw abt the result earlier than us but some of them may withhold as it is unofficial at tht time but nevertheless no harm in asking.... I will ask them arnd March-19 or so...Good Luck!

Hey Snowshoes, I do not understand the difference between four first author publication and 4 conferences. By conferences do you mean just presenting without publication of article in the conference proceeding.... FYI I m also a PGS-D applicant!

@ktel yeah..I pretty much understand ur excitement. I was told by my supervisor abt my application being ranked top 3 in the department and I still recount how excited he was, as well... Since we have many ppl frm UofA, I am thinking of creating a forum for Alberta Innovate scholarship as well. Many ppl amongst us must have applied for it..

wow seems like many ppl frm UofA are here in this forum.... This is my first year of applying.. I was told tht my NSERC application was highly ranked in the department and am pretty hopeful of getting one... Can't wait for March end..
