I have only one 2nd author paper plus a few conferences.... probably true, i just got cgs-d committee 201.. i have 1 publication (first author) and at time of applying had a second publication being reviewed.
Siosaur Posted April 16, 2020 Posted April 16, 2020 I think I just made it, ranked 25 out of 194 applications!

Last year I remember 2 or 3 Guys from ECE ended up getting it (were waitlisted) .. this means 2 to 3 guys ended up not continuing with NSERC for various reasons. if one of these 12 winners ended it getting vanier scholarship (which is very possible) you are automatically upgraded.

EDIT wait does everyone who gets rejected get an alternate, or should I keep my hopes up? My results came in and I was just rejected, so "alternate" is definitely a step above. The Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) Scholarships and Fellowships selection committees have recently completed their evaluation of all applications received in the current competition. I regret to inform you that your application did not score highly enough to be funded, and you will not be offered an award.

I'm glad to hear that! I'm in the second year of my PhD now which definitely gives an advantage, hopefully you can add to your CV for the next round. One thing that I think helped me was using the Michael Smith Foreign Study Supplement to do a research trip, if that's something that interests you I'd highly recommend looking into it. It only took a couple months from the date I applied to receive it!

Thanks! I'm wishing everyone in EE (and everyone else) luck with Vanier and admissions to international universities! Haha!

I keep wondering if the cut-off for waitlist is based on the approx number of people who turned down their award from previous year or what....

Haha! What scores did you get for Research and Relevant experience if you don't mind sharing. I just want to see the difference between us as I am just one above you and that was the cut.
overthewater Posted April 16, 2020 Posted April 16, 2020 For those whose funding package was already higher than 21000 per year, how does your school handle the top-up? Will you still have to TA?

My ranking was 30/182 btw so I feel like I must’ve just made the cut-off for CGS-D, but I really have no idea? I’m still wondering how many scholarships are allocated per committee.
