thejorts Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 Howdy all! Putting some final touches on my application now that we're all waiting around for the system to start working again. Figured I'd start this thread early and see who else is in the same situation! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Folio789153 Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Hi everyone, Something super stressful is happening right now and I'm sort of panicking. I applied through my university this October, following the great crash we know about; everything was in order, all was well. On November 13, my university got back to me, stating their graduate studies committee recommended me for the grant and asking me to re-submit, officially, my application on the portal by November 26 (with added modifications if I wanted to). Well, guess what: today is November 26, the SSHRC servers are down, I've been trying to connect for hours and nothing will load, not even the instructions page on the regular SSHRC website. I wrote to my university and to the SSHRC signalling the issue, but I'm really scared nobody will be able to help me. Has anyone had experience with server issues in the past? How lenient are they with that kind of stuff? It's also my first time ever attending a uni where they give you another opportunity to re-submit your app? Do you think the SSHRC will be more flexible because the November 26 date is arbitrarily fixed by my school, not so much by them? Jim VK 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLMS Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 (edited) I applied directly to the agency, it's 6 weeks after the deadline and I haven't received the email acknowledging receipt of my application. Anyone else in the same boat? Should I be worried? The date stamp on my account is quite a few hours after I actually submitted, and later than the 5pm EST deadline 😳😳 Edited December 7, 2023 by JLMS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AB2222 Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 Is anyone here also waiting to hear back about Vanier (SSHRC)? The website says it will be announced in early April which is just around the corner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rohcoco Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 I'm happy I dug around on last year's forum and found out I don't need to keep checking the application portal website 🫠 I got forwarded to national this year and this funding would be life changing. Waiting is killing me!!! Best of luck everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neverwinter22 Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 Any ideas if we will actually hear back in April this year? Last year it wasn't until like the 8th of May :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

espressomyself Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 @lowbr98 I saw that you were posting in another thread that your application had disappeared from the SSHRC portal (it reads as "nothing to display" but then there is a menu above that says "select one of the following forms from the drop-down menu: applications, accepted invitations, final research reports."). This has also happened to me... I'm assuming it's just a glitch on their end while they wait to send out decisions. I personally won't be calling until others start hearing back Just wanted to post here in case others were experiencing the same! rohcoco 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neverwinter22 Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 Once the applications are forwarded to the national competition they generally tend to disappear from the application portal. If I remember correctly, when results are released, we get an email to login to the sshrc extranet, which is different from the application portal. lyonharted07 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully you got your acknowledging receipt. I also applied directly and got my acknowledgement 12/21/23. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rohcoco Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 I emailed asking for an estimate and was told, The results of the doctoral awards competition will be sent electronically via the SSHRC extranet. We anticipate that the results will be available by the end of April 2024. You will receive an e-mail with more details in the coming weeks. (The best part was I forgot I emailed, so when I woke up to an email from Z-Fellowships this morning I thought it was the notification 😭 I played myself) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neverwinter22 Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 @rohcoco Lol I would have gotten all worked up if I saw that email too, I'm anxiously awaiting anything from sshrc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladyphd Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Last year, results started coming out on the 24th/25th, I went back and checked the date from the email results. I am hopeful we'll get them next week! rohcoco and Val00198 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope466 Posted Tuesday at 07:25 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 07:25 PM getting anxious too! Is anyone else waiting on CIHR CGS-D? Do all three (NSERC, SSHRC, CIHR) usually come out the same day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellisse Posted Tuesday at 07:49 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 07:49 PM i saw on reddit that NSERC may release results on the 25th. not sure about sshrc though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladyphd Posted Tuesday at 09:05 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 09:05 PM They usually come out on the same day or day after. But they results aren't sent all at the same time. For example last year I got mine at like 2:30 am and my friend got it at 12pm the next day, so we gotta be patient for the email! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
