cafehistorica Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Mine was also snailmail. Also a rejection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DXH Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Also a rejection - quite a deflating feeling. Though, I can only offer congratulations to those who did receive it as I'm sure it's well deserved - fight the good fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taun Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Really sorry to hear about the Vanier applications that were unsuccessful. It's such an unbelievably competitive competition. Has anyone heard results that were positive from Vanier? or perhaps these results are not to be shared until a public announcements is made? I've haven't noticed anyone post positive results yet. Hopefully, those who received decline letters from Vanier are still in the running for SSHRC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patho_x Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Can people please verify what award they got rejections from? NSERC,CIHR etc? I applied to Vanier CIHR and still no response whatsoever, the waiting is too much ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taun Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Congrats Phalene- on your friend's success! Thanks for sharing. Anyone received Vanier notification yet on the west coast? Also, does anyone know if departments are given notification before letters are sent out for Vanier? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanier Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 NSERC positive results were received via snail mail on April 7th...yay Also, NSERC CGSD3 results were negative... So I get a no to the smaller and yes to the bigger scholarship. Was I disqualified from the CGS? Maybe there is still hope for some others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was I disqualified from the CGS? Maybe there is still hope for some others Hmm thats really strange! Perhaps they made the decision for your Vanier early and sent the rejection letter for the CGS? Though, they did say to me in an email that the two competitions are completely separate. Man this must have been a stressful time for you - not knowing! Congrats . Still waiting out here on the East Coast for NSERC-Vanier notification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Presco Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Still waiting on news of the Vanier CIHR results in Toronto. I nervously checked my mailbox on my way out the door this morning and was almost relieved to see it empty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
histguy Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 I have to agree with Presco. I am waiting on SSHRC Vanier result here in London and the dearth of 'successful' letters is making me wish to not hear for some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
