I feel bad about it since they could still be processed this afternoon but hey I suffered all weekend! They have autoreply set up so it wouldn't hurt but might not make a difference. Same. I feel like if they did miss some emails, the more people let them know the faster they will deal with it. Could be wishful thinking though.

I am in Electrical and I didn't hear about a single applicants who heard back. I emailed today my school's graduate studies office (McGill) and they said that they got the results from NSERC on Friday but could not disclose it to students until we receive the result from NSERC ourselves. They said we should hear from NSERC "within the coming days"... This is torture. LiquidEther 1

I mean how hard it is to do such system! sjalava, Elli_056 and LiquidEther 3

I mean how hard it is to do such system! Or how hard would it be for them to send an e-mail before releasing results to at least say "Results will be released over these days in random order" or whatever so we at least have some idea of what's going on . sjalava, 2019SARA and LiquidEther 3

Sorry to hear that - thanks for sticking with us and letting us know. Too bad us direct applicants don't have administrators to badger.. Edited April 1, 2019 by LiquidEther

MJ1991 Posted April 1, 2019 Posted April 1, 2019 I am from chem eng (ontario), applied through school and haven't received anything yet ☹️
SamECE Posted April 1, 2019 Posted April 1, 2019 Is it possible that acceptence by email... rejection by mail? This will be depressing .. I hope this is not the case.

I hope this is not the case. That would be unusual. From my understanding in the past it was always just rankings by mail, decision by email. And then what about wait listed people? They just sit in limbo? EDIT: Just got reply back from them with the legendary blue text stating that results were mailed on Friday. I have replied back asking if we should not be expecting email results then and am now waiting to hear back. Edited April 1, 2019 by Elli_056
2019SARA Posted April 1, 2019 Posted April 1, 2019 I just figured out from my university administrator that I am waitlisted. Good luck everyone. LiquidEther 1

Elli_056 Posted April 1, 2019 Posted April 1, 2019 Sent my first email at 11:40, got a reply 2 hours later. Sent another inquiry to the reply and got auto-replied again. cheesewhizzz 1
superman31 Posted April 1, 2019 Posted April 1, 2019 Just sent them email and got the same auto-reply?

SamECE Posted April 1, 2019 Posted April 1, 2019 I am starting to be pessimistic. All the people that heard back today are either rejections or waitlisted. There are few tweets from people if you search Twitter.

And yes, I personally have accepted the fact that I did not get an award and am putting my hopes onto OGS/QEII
