i mean, "at some point over the upcoming 48 hours" is by far superior in my books to "maybe hopefully potentially over the course of, uh, *checks smudged writing on hand,* 2-4 weeks if the letter doesn't get lost?"

Not sure how to find my committee number. It says Committee 7521 on my app.

I'm not sure how it is for uni quota folks, but as a direct applicant, I had to choose one of 6 committees that most aligned with my work. I chose Committee 4.

I could be wrong, but I think committee 6 is a new extension of the previous mega committee 3? I only remember committees 1-5. As quota applicants we can pick our preferred committee, however SSHRC can ultimately change you to a different committee if they think it's more fitting. I am someone who falls between three committees so it was very hard to pick one.

I'm a direct applicant (from a US institution), last name B, committee 2. Received my login information (but no results) at 12:50pm EST.

I think you're right! Originally I had posted that there were five committees, based on my memory. But edited the post after looking at the link I included!

I don't either. My mind is making up all kinds of stories. ?

YUP! In my mind they have a system to give out login info and whatever the system is ... it means No SSHRC for me! LOL

Guess I'll go to bed and hope for something in the morning...someone in my department under the same committee heard so who knows. Funding or no funding research will go on! Wishing everyone the best ?

Well in my mind...the universities have the control and they haven't released the login yet because they have to prepare for what is great! LOL

 I'm sure they aren't releasing results to successful applicants first (that would be a ? system...), but that's also what my mind is telling me right now. Gahhhhhhhhhh :(

RIGHT - logically, I completely agree. Mentally I'm like well this is a good time to just think about that repeatedly and not do anything productive.
