NSERC C/PGSD 2020-2021

[Crawn]

Nothing here, I'm also assuming it's for awardees only.

[BobaCat]

Same here...... No email...... Radio silence since Nov.........

[Suchi]

Im in Ecology and Evolution Committee and got the email, but now I am thinking, what if this email was just sent out to the losers? ahh

[StructIntern]

Well...I am assuming the worst...I can apply one more time for the last time this October.....time to publish that damn paper..

[Tararizer]

It is possible only awardees get the email... but last week we over-analyzed what "Mid-April" meant, so we might be looking too deep into this

I also haven't heard anything! 

[BBbio]

Also heard nothing!

Did you get this email randomly? Or did you send them an email first...?

I received this email randomly.

[PMK]

Still haven't heard either (178), could it have something to do with applying directly vs through an institution?

Nothing here too...it's also possible they gave out fewer awards because of funding cuts due to covid...

I applied through my institution and received it. But seems like very few people got this email, probably doesn't mean anything.

I applied to CIHR as well and have not heard anything.

I seriously doubt the funding cuts due to COVID. If you are receiving NSERC money, it makes you ineligible for the CERB anyways. The CERB (2k/month) actually comes out to more money than the PGSD per month (1750/month) anyways, lol.

I guess I should be more specific. NSERC plans to share the results securely on a new Extranet site. You should expect to receive two system generated emails from NSERC prompting you to access your account. The first email will give you a link to the Extranet as well as your username. The second will give you a password. Once you login you will be able to access award information for the competition.

Could you share the actual email verbatim?

Hello,

In order to ensure that you receive your results of the 2020 NSERC Postgraduate Scholarships and Canada Graduate Scholarships – Doctoral (PGS/CGS D) competition in a timely manner, NSERC has developed a new extranet site to securely share this information electronically.

To support this process, you will be receiving two system-generated emails from NSERC prompting you to access your new account on the NSERC Scholarships and Fellowships Extranet. The first email will contain a link to the Extranet as well as your username, and the second email will contain your password. Once you log into your account, you will be able to access award information such as your notification of results letter for the recent PGS/CGS D competition, which will be available on April 16 before 11:59 p.m. (ET). If you do not receive the system-generated emails within two days from the date of this email, first check your spam email folder and then contact us atschol@nserc-crsng.gc.ca. 

Sincerely,

NSERC Scholarships and Fellowships Division

You picked it when you filled out the application. You should be able to see it if you download your application from the online system

Sorry I gave the wrong info. Please reread the above post. You can also just google NSERC PGS-D committees, it should direct you to the site. Head to scholarship and fellowships and you should see the committees.
