Congs!! I guess my letter will arrive tomorrow (I am in KW).

Hey guys, I have been following these posts for the last couple of days. Good news: here in Ottawa, I got my letter from NSERC today! It is for a CGS-D, which I have trade for a PGS because I am headed to the US; this means more money for somebody else though! Good luck everyone!

Congratz! Hmm, I still think it's odd that some people have PINs while others don't. I hope it's not a bad sign to have one :)

I was hoping to hear by today or tomorrow so I could tell my boss I'm taking a week off (my wife is a teacher, and she has spring break off). I figured it'd be harder to argue with someone saying "Hey, I just covered my salary for the next two years, I'll see you in a week", than "I'm taking a week of vacation?"

Hope Montreal gets it today. Don't know whether I can last yet another day of this waiting game. I'll know in an hour.

No luck today in Montreal. :(

Another 24 hours to go

I still do not have a PIN but I got confirmation from our graduate secretary (since they have the spreadsheets already) that I got the CGSD3. No mail yet as of today.

I spoke with my graduate secretary, but they said they wouldn't release any names or confirmations...we'd have to wait for the mail. :angry:

No letters yet here at Univ. of Alberta (Edmonton), but yesterday the faculty of grad studies released the results to the individual departments. Our department then almost immediately sent out a mass email congratulating the new awardees. Importantly, they released both postgraduate and postdoctoral results, even though postdocs don't apply through any particular university - seems to me like each University receives a master awards list with all PGS/CGS/PDF results. In short, your University may have the PDF results as well - mine did. Got my PDF, phew!

I just asked my secretary and she said she got the NSERC results today but couldn't find anything from PDF uuuugh...She will keep looking.

The departments receive only the successful applicants list?

Should I worry if my secretary didn't see any known names in that NSERC list or just the PDF results are not given to my University?

Hey everyone,

I'm in Ottawa and I got my rejection letter for NSERC in the mail today. It's sad since it's the 3rd year in a row I've applied and been rejected, twice for Masters, and once for PhD now. Maybe better news next month for OGS? My research area is reconstructing past climates to narrow the uncertainty of future climate forecasts. Check out this article and note that NSERC is mentioned.

Yesterday heard from Queen's grad school that I have been awarded a PDF. Today, they told me that they have made a mistake because NSERC has

changed the format of reporting the results to them, and thus I have not got PDF. Isn't it ridiculous?

Nothing in mail yet.

That's terrible Queens!

I'm almost glad my graduate secretary didn't tell me anything, just in case a mix up like that happened. Oh well, back to whistling the Beatle's version of "Mr. Postman" as I wait for tomorrow's delivery.
