psychstudent312 Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 (edited) 1 hour ago I saw a tweet from Dalhousie congratulating their student for winning the SSHRC Joseph-Bombardier Canada Graduate Scholarship! I searched "SSHRC" on twitter and looked at the "latest" posts. Edit: I have looked into it more and I think that it may be the Masters competition..

When you apply for SSHRC doctoral fellowship, you are automatically considered for Joseph-Bombardier CGS-D - which gives you $35,000 (some people call it the big SSHRC or super SSHRC) instead of $20000 (SSHRC doctoral fellowship). So the successful candidates who rank higher get CGS-D. sjalava 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to https://www.nserc-crsng.gc.ca/Students-Etudiants/PG-CS/CGSD-BESCD_eng.asp, only those who have completed 24 months or less (36 months if you are direct entry from undergrad to PhD) are eligible for CGS-D. So I guess it's only for 1st and 2nd year students. Edited April 28, 2020 by maplewalnut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I guess it's only for 1st and 2nd year students. The website says under eligibility: have completed no more than 24 months of full-time study in their doctoral program by December 31 of the year of application (no more than 36 months if transferred directly from Bachelors to a PhD or enrolled in a joint program, e.g., MD/PhD, MA/PhD); Is the year of application not 2019? And the year of award would be 2020? So then it would apply to students going into Years 1, 2 AND 3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Students currently in year 3 and up only eligible for 'small SSHRC'. psychstudent312 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elodie Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 Does anyone know, for the NSERC folks, once they were notified about the Extranet portal and asked to register, how soon after were the results released? I am wondering if we will be asked to register and then wait another day for results, or if we will register and find the results right away? At this rate it feels like we won't know our results until Thursday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m deliberately frontloading my tasks this week so that I have time to wallow in sorrow if results day goes badly. Hopefully we have better odds than 20%, though. Direct applications might be a bloodbath since there wasn’t a first round for them this year, but I’m told that UofT forwarded double their award quota - so for UofT and probably some other schools it’s theoretically only 50% that will get axed. Not that I’d bet my life on those odds! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The school then selected their top 200 applications and forwarded them to SSHRC for adjudication, after which SSHRC’s top-ranked 100 U of T applications get the awards.
