Any U of T student's hear from their departments? I contacted mine and they had no clue

 

[BioPhys2]

Just received my login credentials, last name "K". When I login, just an empty .zip file. U of T Biophysics. Haven't heard anything from dept. or coordinators

Hmmm.  I wonder if tomorrow's results will be released on an alphabetical timeline like today.  ? That could be why they specified a time of 11:59 pm.

Hey all, first time poster -

- I had a quick question: Say someone were to be awared a PGS-D can they reapply the following year to see if they could get a CGS-D or is it locked in for 3 years?

I think if you get OGS/QEII you can reapply the following year for a PGS-D? Is that true?

Full disclosure - I have not heard back from NSERC I was just curious what the answer might be!

Cheers and gl mates!

Yes, I believe you can upgrade your NSERC. I've gotten OGS and QEII and am applying for NSERC still.

got my email now - last name L, but I don't see anything except an empty file after i've downloaded it.

The answer is most likely a Yes

[Imager]

just got them, 'M'!!!

[StructIntern]

I recall that in previous years you have to personally send NSERC an email to accept the award....and many were freaked out about NSERC missing their acceptance email....I wonder if this year will be the same....

Just got mine.  S

[Maram]

Just get mine "S"

The instructions say to hover over the applicants tab and you will see options.  I do this, but I don't have any options come up.  Does anyone else have this problem?

Same. Hoping that's not a sign that we won't have folders ?

 

Also an 'S' that just got the email.

It was like that for me too, but eventually it will update with an empty zip file.

Thanks for saving us all from worry.  It is crazy what our minds will convince us of when we are concerned over things!

[thatblondegirl]

I wonder how many of us will be checking the system at 12:00 am E.T.

For real. @AlphaBetta 12 is the MVP of this thread.

[AlphaBetta 12]

No problem, that's why we have this forum.

Like others, I'm guessing they will roll out the files (i.e. acceptance/rejection letters) in the same slow alphabetical order everything else has followed. I'll be staying tuned for the results of everyone above 'S'.

I was just gonna say the same thing...they might as well just send an email to the rejectees....saving all the username/password trouble

haha I was just going to make a similar comment... it seems to take them a day to generate username/password in alphabetical order + populate with empty folder and probably another day to populate the letters in each corresponding folder.

why not just take one day, and alphabetically send out the letter directly via secure email or sth? 

(they probably have their reasons, just frustrations of last name Y who still hasn't received username/password ...)
