Adelaide9216 Posted August 12, 2018 Author Share Posted August 12, 2018 I am so confused about where it is that I have to submit my application. I am currently a student at McGill But want to pursue a doctorat at Ottawa. SSHRC is not clear in their guidelines about who it is that I have to send it to (they talk about universities that have quota, but both McGill and Ottawa have quotas). They keep sending me back to their guidelines and I tell them that I have read them but that it is still unclear to me. My feeling is that I have to submit at Ottawa but I don't want to send my application at the wrong place and have it disqualified. This is what it says on their website: Statut du candidat Où soumettre la demande À l’automne 2018, le candidat est en congé autorisé ou inscrit à un programme menant à l’obtention d’un diplôme d’un établissement d’enseignement postsecondaire canadien qui a un quota. établissement auquel le candidat est inscrit à l’heure actuelle À l’automne 2018, le candidat est inscrit à un programme menant à l’obtention d’un diplôme d’un établissement d’enseignement postsecondaire canadien qui n’a pas de quota. CRSH À l’automne 2018, le candidat est inscrit à un programme menant à l’obtention d’un diplôme d’un établissement étranger*. CRSH À l’automne 2018, le candidat n’est pas inscrit à un programme menant à l’obtention d’un diplôme d’un établissement d’enseignement postsecondaire canadien, mais il a l’intention d’entreprendre des études de doctorat.

high_hopes Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 At the doctoral level, universities submit candidates to the national competition. When do you start your studies at Ottawa? (Have you been accepted already?) You can ask the graduate administrators in both programs when their internal deadlines are. At my university, I had to submit my application in October of last year. First my department ranked applications and forwarded some to the Faculty of Arts. Then the Faculty of Arts ranked applications and forwarded some (in accordance with their quota) to the national competition. So you'll have to see whether your department at McGill or Ottawa will consider your application. My suspicion is that McGill is less likely to do it as they would prefer a student who is planning to do their PhD at McGill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I think you have to try at McGill since it is the "établissement auquel le candidat est inscrit à l’heure actuelle". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsychBoy Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 sounds like you have to submit to SSHRC directly though... ask SSHRC again...clearly state your situation...ask McGill/uOttawa as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smallaxe Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 @Adelaide9216 Until you're enrolled in your PhD program, you submit your application directly to SSHRC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adelaide9216 Posted October 6, 2018 Author Share Posted October 6, 2018 I was told that I have to submit through my current uni even if I'm attending another university for PhD. So confusing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TooManyQuestions Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 (edited) I'm having the same problem... I'm not sure whether I am supposed to submit my application to my current university, the university I am planning to attend (different than my current uni), or directly to SSHRC. I'm finding so much conflicting information - it's driving me insane! What did everyone else end up doing? A bit of context: I'm in my second year of my Master's, and have not applied to/ been accepted to any PhD programs yet.

YuzuCat Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Hello folks, I just wanted to wish everyone good luck and emotional fortitude in the coming months. I didn't make the first couple times I applied, then won unexpectedly. Regardless of your SSHRC outcome, I wish you all the best :) Re: Adelaide and TooManyQuestions, it's probably more strategic to apply through your current university than to apply directly to SSHRC where you would compete with all applicants that have already out of school.

TBay Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 I'm so happy to be forwarded to SSHRC by my institution as of today. Hopefully between a SSHRC and a Vanier nomination, one will work out for me. Good luck to everyone! high_hopes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sagesaga Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Hello Canadian fellows! It's wonderful to see a thread for SSHRC application. I have a quick question: I've already applied for SSHRC doctoral awards and I also need to apply for OGS for the same 2019-2020 competition. I wonder whether I can use the same proposal? Thanks!
