I'm just wondering if anyone has heard anything about these awards? Will we be notified at all through the process?
For SSHRC/CIHR/NSERC you should be notified from your university as to whether or not you made it out of the university to Ottawa. I know doctoral results from the university went out today for SSHRC at my university. If you make it to Ottawa, you won't hear until April I think, or maybe late March as to whether or not you actually got the award. If you have been out of school and applied directly to Ottawa you won't hear back until then as well.
The deadline for schools to submit their short list for CIHR is Feb 1st.

I just emailed my department yesterday to let me know if there is any news on it, because I'm really counting on it going through. :crosses fingers:
Thanks! Would you mind sharing when the deadline for SSHRC was at your school? I applied for CIHR, but the deadline was January 4th... I presume it's too early to expect that they've reviewed all the applications? Maybe not.
Thanks again.
I was just informed by CIHR did not go through to Ottawa. FML.........
why is it so hard.
Are you folks applying from Canadian schools? I'm applying for a CIHR from the states and the process is a little different (no department review).
Shoot, that sucks! I'm sorry. 🙁
Did you get an email? I haven't received anything! :S
This process is enough to make anyone completely insane. Ugh.
Yup, I live in Ontario and am applying to CIHR through my Canadian school. I wish there was no departmental review! In your case, I suppose you will only hear much later about whether your application will be funded or not, as I assume you applied directly to Ottawa(?)
No I asked the person who handles these awards.
Only 2 people from my department applied and I think we both didn't go through b/c our department told us to do something different than that was actually required... so we never even completed the online portion and they changed the process this year, you can't send them paper-documents anymore (if you apply through a department).
