Numbered Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 I just received an email from my Graduate Advisor, wishing me congratulations on getting the SSHRC. It was quite a nice surprise! So it seems as though the results have been sent out to the departments, and hopefully the letter is in the mail... BIG CONGRATS Dotlock! All the best in spending it!
Dotlock Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 Where do you live Dotlock? I'm finishing my MA at the University of Victoria. Heading to UBC in September for doctoral studies. Thank you! obrera, raise cain, sugarcoatedsour and 1 other 1 3
psychgirl77 Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 Congrats!!! So I guess they send the info to departments before they put the letters in the mail....?
sugarcoatedsour Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 Are you in CSPT by chance? I also did my MA there, great place. So you're not bullshitting, I assume? Last year the letters got to us before the departments heard, but I know this has not been the case in other years.
ilovebooks Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 I just received an email from my Graduate Advisor, wishing me congratulations on getting the SSHRC. It was quite a nice surprise! So it seems as though the results have been sent out to the departments, and hopefully the letter is in the mail... Dotlock- is your Graduate Advisor a member of a SSHRC adjudication committee? I'm wondering if they had the inside scoop or if they heard from the Graduate Studies Office at your university. Hopefully results are being filtered through Grad Studies Offices and we can all expect to hear soon! Congratulations either way!
sugarcoatedsour Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 Yeah it seems strange. Maybe Dotlock has an inside scoop from somewhere. Presumably, though, if Dotlock's grad advisor was a member of an adjudication committee, and was willing to spill the beans, it would've happened more than a few days before everyone else is notified? Or maybe not. Or we have a troll. Or maybe people on the East Coast will find out tomorrow when their Grad Advisor's open their inbox? Aimless speculation...need closure.
obrera Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 I wake up to all of these new messages in this thread, and I almost fall off my chair. It might not be a troll, since they (historically) should be releasing the results via mail tomorrow or Friday. FREAKING OUT.
Dal PhDer Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 ...must...know... Congrats Dot! That's awesome!! Sending wishful vibes to all!
T.burelli Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 I asked my graduate department to know if they have the results in Ottawa... I'll see what they say.
obrera Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 I asked my graduate department to know if they have the results in Ottawa... I'll see what they say. Ditto in Kingston.
obrera Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 My university hasn't heard anything from SSHRC yet.
cmuehlbe Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 Sadly, I am going to have to agree. Emailed the graduate office at my school and this was their reply, "SSHRC has not posted any results I just checked our secure website. Not sure how other institutions are hearing. Vanier are the only results available." Disappointing.
sugarcoatedsour Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 Way to make us look like a bunch of dicks, Dot. raise cain 1
Numbered Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 That's disappointing.... But given what's at stake, I dont really feel like a dick... maybe a bit naive, and overly optimistic. Ahh, well, the wait continues... Good luck all. May the SSHRC gods bless you
sugarcoatedsour Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 Faculty of Grad studies at my school hasn't heard anything. So I don't think anything has been released to anyone.
Nerd_For_Life Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 Yeah, I agree, none of us look like dicks, only dot does
Roquentin Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 Dot's no troll, ya noodles. I just heard from my school this morning (doctoral fellowship, yay!). You'll all be receiving your results shortly, I'd expect. And when you do, perhaps send some apologies to Dot, mkay. obrera, sugarcoatedsour and raise cain 3
nerdystudent Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 (edited) I just contacted my school. No results! They told me that they were expecting the decisions to come out in early May! How is it that some schools are not getting notified?! Edited April 24, 2013 by nerdystudent
sugarcoatedsour Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 Mine also said early May. What school are you at Roquentin? And are you just Dot in disguise? I trust no one.
