boourns Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 (edited) After hearing such good news on this forum I decided to call my grad studies dept. (FGSR) at the U of A this morning. I won PGSD3, I won't believe it until I get that letter in my hands though! I had 2 first author publication in mid impact journals and 1 first author publication submitted at the time of application, as well as 3 international conferences. My grades in undergrad were quite poor aside from an upward trend of 3.8+ in the last 2 years of undergrad. I also did quite a bit of volunteer work (mentoring several undergraduates, chair of 3 academic committees, and 4-5 other community volunteer gigs). Good luck to everyone else, 3rd time was a charm for me! Also what is the likelihood that I'll be upgraded to CGS? And when do we find this out? Do they just tell everyone PGS and then wait until later to announce CGS? Edited April 4, 2012 by boourns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

une17 Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 For all those who go to UWO, apparently results will be available online in your "Student Centre" website within the next 24 hours. The School of Graduate and Post-Doctoral Studies is beginning to load them now. Fingers crossed for all applicants. GradStd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hany Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 (edited) I think the department dont have acces to the results of PDF. So you have to wait the letter.. Hey guys, I called NSERC (613-943-8766) and I was told that for NSERC PDF results, the letters were sent to the mail room at NSERC only yesterday and that they should be on their way to us. I also asked whether the university receives a list of names of the winners and the answer was yes, but the university is not allowed to tell the winners and that they have to wait till they get the result in the mail. Hopefully this helps. Edited April 4, 2012 by Hany jimntonik, Ironmonkey66 and marmoor 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winter2012 Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Anyone with PDF results? I sent an email yesterday to a staff at our institute who adminsters NSERC award holders and asked if she can see the results of NSERC PDF applicants. I have not heard any thing yet. I mentioned that I applied independently of our institute. However, the results of PGS/CGS are already arrived in UBC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do they just tell everyone PGS and then wait until later to announce CGS? They announce CGS and PGS at the same time, you could potentially be upgraded if enough people turn down the CGS (i think).

MichalK Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Also, there are a lot of people here that seem to think you need a lot of publications for NSERC, last year a friend with 1 first author conference paper, a second author submitted journal and a few large multi-author government publications won CGS3D. Mind you they had a lot of other amazing achievements, but first author journals aren't everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
