Adelaide9216 Posted April 1, 2019 Author Posted April 1, 2019 If you get the email, tell us here! I guess we have three more days before we know about Vanier! astralsource 1
astralsource Posted April 1, 2019 Posted April 1, 2019 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.

Adelaide9216 Posted April 1, 2019 Author Posted April 1, 2019 (edited) 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! Edited April 1, 2019 by Adelaide9216
