There are a bunch of committees that applications went to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It gets assigned when you choose your 'research subject code'. Check page 3 of your Form 201. It's in the top right hand corner. My committee is 4700 (evolution and ecology), specifically 4705 (ecotoxicology). Here's the list of codes: NSERC - Code Tables (nserc-crsng.gc.ca) However, sometimes if they think your proposal fits better into a different category, your committee can be changed at their discretion!

StructIntern Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 Last name Z and I got the login this morning. Note that this is the second time (and final) I am applying so I do have the login and password from last year. It seems that I do not need to re-create another account (i.e. I can just use what I got from last year). The interface has changed though as the folder and feedback files from last year were gone. Now the waiting game has officially started !!! Good luck everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, they very intentionally changed the wording from "on April 16th" (last year) to "by April 30th" (this year). So I feel like it could be any time now. Apparently the postdoctoral applicants received an email with similar wording and got theirs 1-2 days later? I recall reading that somewhere upthread, but correct me if I'm wrong.

T_T I'm so happy I stumbled across this forum so that I have other people to talk too! I don't know anyone else from my program in the NSERC competition this year, so this has been great. Since I'm marking a 2nd year Animal Bio exam right now I thought I'd share my favourite answer to brighten everyone's day: "the bird lung is stuff and does not change in volume" Best of luck to everyone! seeveeargh, Pouty_Scouty and illuminatice 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
