Dakon Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Oh dear, all I need is another reason to spend more time fantasizing about what I would do with all of that money! dccp 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theatregeek Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Hello all, another longtime lurker here! Thanks for this forum... it definitely helps a bit with the ridiculous process! So I have a question similar to a thread on these last coupla pages (about whether access to certain forms in our portfolios is a sign of hope). I'm still waiting for results too- hoping for tomorrow... but in looking at my portfolio, it offers me - under application forms- "accepted invitations" and "final research report". Anybody have any clue if that's a good sign? (I.e. am I crazy to imagine that it might mean a sshrc coming my way if the system allows for a final report...?) (I'm not expecting a CGS as I'm at 20 months in my study.) Regardless of what happens- appreciate all of you out there- this last week has felt a bit hair raising and knowing that there's a community of sorts has really helped. Thank-you!

(I'm not expecting a CGS as I'm at 20 months in my study.) Hi Geek, I have those options available too, although it doesn't actually let me create a "final research report" form--not sure about you. I suspect these might be meaningless in our case, since they look more like things that would apply to faculty researchers and collaborators. I started panicking a bit upon realizing that the Michael Smith application is not available on my screen, but since I'm studying in the States, I'm not eligible for the CGS anyway (as apparently you are not either) so there is still a small amount of hope. Good luck, and I hope your results arrive soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
checkeredBlanket Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 For all you who are panicking about the portfolio accounts, only the second link posted by oxfordphil allows you to view the foreign study Michael smith supplement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oxforddphil Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 checkeredBlanket is right. I also had to click on 'create new forms' before it appeared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

checkeredBlanket Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 I think the form is simply there as the deadline for it is coming up, so I also doubt it means anything....yet, unless someone who got waitlisted or rejected checks their account from the SECOND link.

oxforddphil Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Mail has come and gone in Oxford and still no news. This is torture. SSHRC will be getting one very angry letter of complaint, no matter what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
checkeredBlanket Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Same here .... How much longer??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
checkeredBlanket Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 This is obsessive but can someone who is waitlisted or rejected sign into their account from second link and see uf the foreign supplement form is there??? Plz plz plz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farkwadius Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 This is obsessive but can someone who is waitlisted or rejected sign into their account from second link and see uf the foreign supplement form is there??? Plz plz plz I got my (successful) letter a couple of days ago in Toronto, and I can't see the foreign supplement form at all, not even under 'create new form'. It seems having access to it is neither here nor there. I guess you'll just have to wait for the mailman... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziz Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 No mail for me today either . I guess it's only SSHRC's fault to the extent that they mail them instead of emailing...aaaaaaaaaaaargh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

placebased Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 I got my (successful) letter a couple of days ago in Toronto, and I can't see the foreign supplement form at all, not even under 'create new form'. It seems having access to it is neither here nor there. I guess you'll just have to wait for the mailman... I am a successful B Category SSHRC (thus not eligible for the Michael Smith) but I can see the Michael Smith when I click on this link (second link in the previous post) and then "Create a New Form" after logging in....I don't think it is an easter egg for those who are hoping for a CGS!

sugarcoatedsour Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Big ol' lurker here in Winnipeg... thought I better join in and post my results. 18/30 No publications No 'real' conferences Master's SSHRC, plus a number of provincial/university awards 4 years experience TA/numerous guest lecture appearances 4.37/4.5 MA GPA, 4.0 undergrad Great reference letters Political Science Offered category C... not sure whether I will take super-sshrc or regular sshrc, choice amounts to going to a reputable Canadian university and being rich, or going to my dream school abroad and racking up debt. Congrats to all successful applicants, and good luck next time to those who were not. You got 18/30 and you're in political science? I got 18/30 and got rejected. Womp womp.

monty Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Just received word!! B category SSHRC (already studying in the U.S.) Score: 21.5/30 3 peer reviewed articles 2 book reviews 6 conference papers I am able to view the Foreign Study Supplement, if that helps anyone out. This forum has been a huge help to me over the past few agonizing days. Thanks to all for sharing. Courage to all those still waiting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theatregeek Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 I'm away from my mail this week but thought I'd share that I just got an email from my department... successful with a 2 year x 20k. (What I was hoping for as I"m finishing 2nd year now.) So... sounds to me like departments have the info now, if that's helpful for any of you. Thanks again for the supportive community- sending good thoughts to all who are still waiting, and to those whose results were not what you'd hoped for. (For what it's worth, my first year was pretty brutal... so it does get better!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
