ducon_lajoie Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Any more news today? Nope. the only significant result I can give so far is that drinking only temporarily helps with the wait and hinders the studying process on the next day cathaea 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeedFunds Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Unfortunately, I too have learned this from experience! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dakon Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 The solution is to just keep drinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oxforddphil Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 I emailed a person at SSHRC that I was in contact with a few months ago when there was a problem processing my application. He told me that the letters will be sent out either late this week or early next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeedFunds Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Nice, it is very difficult to work under these conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ziz Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 I'm glad someone else will share my pain when we see others have received their letters and we've still got a few more days until they arrive in Oxford! What college are you at? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dccp Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 I emailed a person at SSHRC that I was in contact with a few months ago when there was a problem processing my application. He told me that the letters will be sent out either late this week or early next week. Thanks oxfordphil for the information. Fingers crossed that letters will come this week. The wait is nerve wracking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziz Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Technically it's late this week right? So we could get them next week! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeedFunds Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Technically it's late this week right? So we could get them next week! Word on the street is that it is late this week OR early next week. And, in the language of SSHRC, that could mean by the end of the month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathaea Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Word on the street is that it is late this week OR early next week. And, in the language of SSHRC, that could mean by the end of the month. Let's think happy thoughts -- we're in the home-stretch and will probably be out of our misery by early May! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMMS18 Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 I can't believe this. It is 4:00 and I have actually met my goals for today.... I think it is because I KNOW the results won't be here until next week... *sigh* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canukulhead Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 I’m really hoping they will email the results to my school and my supervisor will email me on Friday with the news! Last year I got the news from my supervisor two days before the letter arrived (waitlisted ... #$@!). I want to get hammered this weekend, whether in sorrow (rum) or celebration (Champaign). Group hug now? Andsowego and ltam 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dakon Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 So if you don't get any news, does that mean you have to drink both insofar as you will be stuck in the undecidable state of the insupportable in-between? cathaea 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeedFunds Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Getting no news sounds a lot better when you think about it like that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziz Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 I plan to drink either way. But I'd to be drinking in celebration rather than drowning my sorrows obviously. cathaea 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ducon_lajoie Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Agreed here. I hereby promise to have a thought for all here when I drink tonight, tomorrow night, and on friday night (I have good reasons: long day, friend coming over, friend getting married) Dakon, I feel for you (regarding the French Post, I'm French, I know how much they suck ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziz Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 I love the fact that I eagerly check this thread despite knowing that there will be no news until next week at the earliest anyway. I seem to be almost as interested in our collective moaning as any actual results . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
