EnergeticBacteria Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 (edited) Hi all, First time starting a post on here. Figured I'd make one for us CIHR CGS-D applicants this year as the nominations are starting to get processed and sent to CIHR, so we can all share our time in suspense! Just had my application "Approved by Research Institution" yesterday, so I imagine the actual sending of the application package to CIHR will take place tomorrow or Monday (deadline for nominations is Monday Nov 22 @ 8PM EST). This is my first time applying, I selected the biomedical research scientific area ("Doctoral Research Awards - A"). Looking at numbers from previous years, seems to be about a 1-in-3 to 1-in-4 chance that the application is selected for funding after making it to the national competition, with at least 250 applications being funded this year. Pretty reasonable odds if you ask me! Best of luck everyone! Edited November 20, 2021 by EnergeticBacteria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnergeticBacteria Posted November 22, 2021 Author Share Posted November 22, 2021 And just updated to "Submitted to Funding Organization" this morning on ResearchNet, with the official CIHR email sent out as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnergeticBacteria Posted January 5, 2022 Author Share Posted January 5, 2022 Status moved to "In Peer Review" this week, guessing no more updates until mid-April or so when decisions should be released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EnergeticBacteria Posted March 23, 2022 Author Share Posted March 23, 2022 So turns out April 15 is Good Friday, which means government offices are all likely closed. Wonder if this will delay results to the next Tuesday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VanessaB Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 Just curious . . . anyone know if SSHRC, CIHR, and NSERC release all of the results on the same day or do they get released on different days depending on which funding agency you applied to?

BrokeGradStudent Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Hi all, congratulations to those who's application was approved! I had a quick Q: what if I am a couple spots away from the quota. Do people usually decline their CGS-D? Thank you in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wholesome Biochemist Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Congrtz to all who got it as well!!! Same question, I'm also a couple spots outside from Committee A so just wondering how common it is for people to decline CGSD (i.e. for Vanier)!

milktoast Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 I don't know past numbers but there are a few reasons why an applicant might decline their offer. E.g. being offered the Vanier or other scholarships of higher monetary value that can't be held concurrently with the CGS-D, applicants choosing to go to another university, applicants who were not registered in a degree program at the time of submission and then didn't get accepted to a graduate program (probably rare). Since there are only a few Vanier spots and results are already out, I would expect those who won both the Vanier and CGS-D to decline their CGS-D offer pretty quickly. In past threads, a few people mentioned being waitlisted and then getting an offer so don't lose hope!!

Wholesome Biochemist Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 FYI to all those who are close to the cutoff, I emailed CIHR about the possibility of getting off the "waitlist" and this is what they said: "Thank you for your email. Following a certain number of initial offers of award declined by applicants, new documents will be released tomorrow, June 30th, for the next-in-line applicants. We encourage you to verify your account and the “Respond to Offer of Award” section as of tomorrow. " Looks like we might get some good news tomorrow!

Cdn_Psych_Today Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 I am applying for CIHR CGS-D this year - and the process is very different from the CGS-M CIHR it appears! Quick question because maybe I am misinterpreting things - where are your including your research proposal with references? I see that there is an abstract that is limited to 2000 characters (including spaces) as well as an attachment for a summary that is max 1 page - which is a new way to propose things (summary?! What does this mean?!) - but where do you attach references for your proposal, or are you just not referencing anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
