I think when you accept the award they ask the start date again

worst case scenario you just email Vanier and they'll be okay with that

PsychBoy you have been so helpful and generous with helping guide us this year by sharing your own experience.  Thank you so much for that.  It is very, very much appreciated!! :)

Can't believe it's this week. I haven't even noticed how time flew by because I had courses and seminars this whole winter lol! Let's hope for the best! If not, we have one more chance to apply this year! And you could even apply for the next 2 years if I'm not mistaken.

Do you know if all the acceptances were sent out Friday 

I don't! I've been following the posts on the grad cafe NSERC forum and it seems like in past years it has been done in a couple waves.

I'm sorry! Try again next year if you can, you'll be an even stronger applicant!

As I expected, research potential was my lowest score!

Academic excellence: 7.10

Research potential: 5.75

Leadership: 7.90

Overall score: 6.92

Rank: 50/172.

At this point, I don't care about my rank, I am so lucky because I haven't started my PhD yet and I was in competition with upper-year PhD students. I'm so happy and relieved, I almost got a heart attack when I saw the email!

You ranked pretty high on leadership wow! You volunteered a lot? Was it related to social science or not?

Yes, I volunteer since a very young age so I have a lot of volunteer experiences ! Mostly community work!

I saw that a few people decline every year, not many but a few apparently (if they get funding from elsewhere or something).

1.Academic Excellence:6.002.

Research Potential: 5.503.

Leadership:6.00

Overall Average score: 5.83

 

I'm surprised I got so low on leadership since I had an NGO for 4 years straight and volunteering is my middle name.
