diegoab Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Anyone waiting for this year's results? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T.burelli Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 I am wainting for the results. It is supposed to be released on friday I think... I was told by my faculty that the ratio to get the scholarship is one on two does anyone got similar information? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diegoab Posted March 27, 2013 Author Share Posted March 27, 2013 Interesting, I did not know the ratio was that high, I thought it would be something more like 1/4... You mean Friday this week? Do you know if they email the results? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerriBlank Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 (edited) i am waiting too. my school told me that you could not really predict your chances. they told me last year 1 out of 5 from our school got it, the year before 6 out of 7. the email i received when they confirmed receiving my application said results would be out in may, so friday would definitely be nice!

T.burelli Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Last year the results were issued on the 30th of March. On Recherche.net it says it s on the 29th of March this year. I hope I am not wrong... I would be surprise if it s May because the Scholarship is supposed to start in May (I mean for those who choose this date). And usually the race for scholarships is done in May... For the ratio there is nothing official and I talked about a global ratio not a uni one (as far as I know I uni can get no vanier one year and then the next year have all its candidates to have it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerriBlank Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 ok that's good to know - i thought it was late too. the only think i could think of was that maybe they said that to be safe and herd off people calling and asking... or it was supposed to say march instead of may. anyways, good luck everyone.

ElectricBlueOcelot Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 When I checked a while ago it orginially said March 31st (which is Sunday). Now it has changed to the 29th, so hopefully we will find out soon. I believe the number of Vanier scholars is dependent on the amount of research funding each University received from that particular funding agency (NSERC/SSHRC/CIHR). And this will determine the number of applications a school is willing to send and with the quality of the candidates on a national level the odds will change every year. So it difficult to guess your odds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElectricBlueOcelot Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 I hope we get an email from Research Net or something instead of waiting on the snail mail or office admin. I'm starting to get nervous every time an email comes in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UBCstudent123 Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 When I inquired yesterday, I got the following: "Good morning, The results should be out by the end of March. Thank you, Rachele Goulet" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvolBiol Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 (edited) i am on pins and needles too,...and flinch every time my email application chimes. The 29th sounds promising for an online posting of results on researchnet. It seems from last year's board that people got emails notifying them that the results were online (but not what the result was), and this seemed to happen faster than mailed letters arrived. So friday it is I guess! Does anyone know where the results will be posted once you log on to researchnet? Will it be on the "completed activities" page?

van13 Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Does anyone know where the results will be posted once you log on to researchnet? Will it be on the "completed activities" page? If it's the same than last year, the results should show up on Researchnet under "Current Activities" (which is empty at the moment). Hope the results are coming out this week. Do they have holidays on Friday as well? Good luck to everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maruf Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Hi, where I will be getting the actual result? from the mailing address mentioned in the CCV or in the email/reseachgate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvolBiol Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I think potentially both. The results might get posted online first (you should get an email telling you they are up). Depending on how far from Ottawa you are, the letter may be a bit later...That's what I figure anyways, judging by last year's forum posts.
