ktel Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 Who is going on this thread and randomly downvoting normal responses? I just upvoted all the unnecessary ones I saw. sbaldwin 1
Sylvat Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 It looks like NSERC may not really know (big surprise) when they are going to mail the answers. I just called and received a reply email. Both said mailing will begin late this week or early next week. Other than Marmoor, has anyone else received a different response?
marmoor Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 based on how they replied us all I guess they will start mailing letters starting tomorrow and this process will take a week or so since there are many applicants. But for sure all letters are mailed by March 30th.
yellowtulip Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 Everyone is so quiet today!!! The anxiety is building ktel and Joe Mudge 1 1
treebark Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 No one cares any more I wish this were the case .
yellowtulip Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 Lol... These timelines (from NSERC's PDF policy guide) make me laugh!! Not that I'm complaining... it would still be pretty sweet to get an award! I just find it amusing since presumably none of us will get letters 'til into April (especially the ones that are doing PDFs out of country)! "You can take up your award at any time between April 1 of the year in which you are awarded the fellowship..." "To activate your award, complete a Request for First Instalment and submit it to NSERC's Scholarships and Fellowships Division between four and six weeks prior to the date on which you intend to take up your award.." seebee 1

snowshoes Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 I hope we find out this week! I'm in Ottawa, so I'll let you guys know what today's mail brings.
marmoor Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 If anyone gets mail today from NSERC then the departments should already know the results.
vivaldi Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 (edited) I emailed the graduate studies office last friday and here is their response : Dear ......, At present, Concordia University has not received any notification from NSERC regarding the results of the competition. Once we received this information, we shall inform our students immediately. Best regards, ...... Edited March 26, 2012 by vivaldi

I'd assume they would wait until the student is "officially" notified.
GradStd Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 Just called NSERC, I have been told that letters will not be mailed out before the federal budget is tabled (March 29), even the university won't know until then....stressed for few more days:(( vivaldi 1
vivaldi Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 I believe universities get notified before the candidates themselves ...
vivaldi Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 Can someone win Vanier CGS and NSERC CGS at the same time ?
DalPhD Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 Saw this on Twitter this morning... NSERC-CRSNG @nserc_crsng Congratulations! RT @aleksessex: I'm honored this morning to have been awarded the NSERC Alexander Graham Bell Canada Graduate Scholarship! https://twitter.com/#!/nserc_crsng/status/184281443080478721 GradStd 1
tomj Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 (edited) That's interesting... EIther the left hand doesn't know what the right one is doing (see posts #157 and 193) or someone got his notification from an unofficial channel. Edited March 26, 2012 by tomj
marmoor Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 cant believe any of this unless at least one person in Ottawa gets a letter
treebark Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 Well, at least some good news on the NSERC front today for climate change scientists: http://www.nserc-crsng.gc.ca/Media-Media/NewsRelease-CommuniqueDePresse_eng.asp?ID=344 http://www.nserc-crsng.gc.ca/Professors-Professeurs/Grants-Subs/CCAR-RCCA_eng.asp
