You might be able to use the "i forgot my password" option.  I would wait more before taking that step.

Ugh I feel stupid thanks for the quick reply, it was in my spam folder on my computer/not my phone. Anyone else feel a little hungover from anxiety?

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 ...)

I feel you! I’m a W so I can’t imagine the anxiety I’ll have tomorrow as the actually letters roll out alphabetically ?

Drinking the pain away now. The hangover is for tomorrow when I'm dead from rejection anyway ?

YES! Thank you! This describes exactly how I'm feeling ... can't stop with the coffee (but thats kinda normal anyways).

Does anyone know how the decisions work when you've listed 3 potential schools on your application? Would you be offered the award for one school only or multiple?

I know people who got offered at more than one place for CGS M - i'm assuming it's the same for CGS D!

Not sure with PGS but when I started I was offered the CGS M at one institution, waitlisted at another, and not at the third.

I don't know for sure, but I think YOU are given the award and then get to decide which institution to take it to.

Does anyone's username email say "As a previous user of an NSERC extranet, please use your existing account information to login..." ??? I may have inadvertently registered on this extranet. ???

mine didn't ?

mine didn't but the username was the email I used to apply.  Also there is the option "forgot username" and "forgot password"

So just so I understand, if I received news from school X that I was offered an award, but now I am leaning towards attending school Y. Does that mean I might not be able to accept my award at that school?

Once you get the award...the balance of power is shifted ... is your references and proposed PI from school X ??? You should give them a heads up as a courtesy

Maybe they are in the process of putting that letter into your folder....think positive
