Proteinsci 1 Posted April 3 So I called my department and apparently they got the results last night? She told me I was an alternate and the only alternate within my department..? Does anyone know the chances? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Proteinsci 1 Posted April 3 21 hours ago, Lisbethx said: So I spoke to my department again, and they told me that out of 15 people in our department who applied this year, 3 got a scholarship and 2 others got waitlisted. So if you are waitlisted, it still means you did pretty good. They also told me that there is a fair chance of getting it if you're waitlisted, depending on your position on the list. But is this list based on your institution? Department? Or category?? Do you know? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've been asking the same thing: 1 hour ago, Lisbethx said: Does anyone know how the waitlist work? Are everyone ranked together, or is it by department/institution/committee? So e.g. if a biology student at UBC declined their scholarship and I'm in physics at McGill and am next in line on the overall ranking, do I get the scholarship? Or does a student in my department/institution/committee have to decline and only then I get the scholarship? Someone answered: 1 hour ago, LiquidEther said: I think its definitely at least by committee cause that's how we were ranked, but I don't know about the institution balance...

2019SARA 4 Posted April 3 The process this year seems very disorganized. Based on the auto-reply that we have received via email, our rankings should be emailed in mid April. So, I believe that it's another letter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
