vivaldi Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 ))) guess this is NSERC's way of generating a friendly environment between grad students . I wonder how long will it take for them to send the letters since the budget is already announced. They have us all ranked so its just a matter of printing letters. Do you think that the graduate students offices have the results by now ?
vivaldi Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 Hahaa... I miss being in Montreal... I was in concordia before and am in love with the city. Am concordian as well ;-) stud007 1
stanvx Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 Do you think that the graduate students offices have the results by now ? Just went to see our graduate student office. They have not heard anything from NSERC, nor do they know when the results will be released.
marmoor Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 Do you think that the graduate students offices have the results by now ? No harm in asking, I bet they will have them by 4PM
marmoor Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 No harm in asking, I bet they will have them by 4PM The only thing is McGill never informs applicants of their awards. I have won NSERC two times and I got informed by mail all the time.
faming Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 For me, no news is NOT good news, because they will send those winners by email only,
Clarrien Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 I was so happy to see responses in French and English in this forum. I don't think that it is rude at all!!! As you said, vivaldi, both are official. I love that about Canada I hope to be bilingual (or at least close) one day. My bf grew up in NB so he is bilingual and I am so jealous of that. I can understand your posts, but I'm not confident enough to reply back I'm happy to see posts in both OFFICIAL languages. How is it fair to always expect french speaking Canadians to write/speak in english when dealing with english speaking Canadians, and basically never have english speaking Canadians outside Quebec or Ontario (or small pockets in other provinces) write/speak in French? It is my problem I'm not confident in my french, but I am super tired of expecting french speaking Canadians to speak english for my benefit, it is embarrassing! sklaus30, snowshoes, stud007 and 2 others 4 1
mattboud Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 No harm in asking, I bet they will have them by 4PM They're only announcing the budget at 4PM ET, so they'll probably only find out tomorrow. The only thing is McGill never informs applicants of their awards. I have won NSERC two times and I got informed by mail all the time. That's good to know, one less thing to stress about!
eliasg Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 Just called Polytechnique Office. Don't know anything about NSERC. But they told me that they will have the results at the same with tha applicants, even before (due to Poste Canada delays)
eliasg Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 I don't know why NSERC do not send results via e-mail or in our website account like FQRNT in Quebec ...

stud007 Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 Its sooo crazy!... I have been soo unproductive since last many dayz...
eliasg Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 Its sooo crazy!... I have been soo unproductive since last many dayz... I think we have a point in common ...
faming Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 Its sooo crazy!... I have been soo unproductive since last many dayz... me too, sucks waiting...
Clarrien Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 Its sooo crazy!... I have been soo unproductive since last many dayz... Well, glad I'm not alone I guess! I really am looking forward to the waiting being over!
faming Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 It seems over, i didnot got any email from Banting.
vivaldi Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 It seems over, i didnot got any email from Banting. Banting informs through emails ?
eliasg Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 Banting informs through emails ? I think Banting informs via Researchnet like Vanier
vivaldi Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 I think Banting informs via Researchnet like Vanier When do you expect Vanier results to be published ?
eliasg Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 When do you expect Vanier results to be published ? On researchnet, they said April 15th
eliasg Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 (edited) Does anyone know if the universities send applications to NSERC classified or ranked ?? Edited March 29, 2012 by eliasg
eliasg Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 For Vanier, we can call : Vanier Canada Graduate Scholarships Program 613-943-0703 to have more information
vivaldi Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 Of course not looooool why should they be ranked ? you can be a good researchers and not from a very known university !!! can't you ? In my lab, there are already 2 NSERC CGS from last year, and one FQRNT, and they're in Concordia which is not the top university in Canada if you compare it with U of T for example !
vivaldi Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 For Vanier, we can call : Vanier Canada Graduate Scholarships Program 613-943-0703 to have more information I don't expect me to win it, so it would be a waste to call them
