2018 Marie Curie Individual Fellowship (H2020-MSCA-IF-2018)

I am highly skeptical of all these because I don't think the NCPs are given access to personal information of individual applicants!

Maybe @birdbrid provide his personal information to his NCP?

I used to ask my NCP for exact date, the NCP said they don't know yet but they are willing to help me check if I could tell them more details about my proposal.

[Cla]

But did you ask for your score? or they are informing all the people without asking for it??
I think all other NCPs are going to be very happy with the turkish NCP...

I just received an email from my NCP saying that I got 88.2 points rejected. I recommend you guys to contact your own NCP

Is that Turkish NCP?

Yes Turkish NCP. Good luck to all of you.

[birdbird]

Is that Turkish NCP?

Yes Turkish NCP. Good luck to all of you.

I'm also skeptical they know our scores in advance. But in any case, and if what they told you were true, sorry to hear that and I hope you are a bit more lucky in the future (88 is a good score in any case, so you just need a little push)

Thank you. I will try again next year. Good luck to you.

Exactly. To be frankly last year when I called my NCP I felt that they actually already knew sth but they could not say anything (but this was just a feeling and I did not have any eviddnce). I think NCPs know something already, also because the amount of bureaucratic work for signing grants should be prepared reasonably in advance in order to be closed in 2-3 months.... and NCPs are important also for this. Maybe they know the number of fellowships and universities that are involved. But it seems very weird to me thst they can have access to individual ESRs and score.

OK.. but that doesn't mean that they don't have them by now, right? And maybe they're just waiting for the results to be officially released (except Turkish NCP).

NCPs had results for sure until 2015 and used to send them before the official announcement (in particular to winners). What I know is that after 2015 (because of protests for uneven communication across europe) they stopped (or they were forbidden) releasing results.

Does that mean that our host institutions should know by now too, or do they hear at the same time as the applicants?

I tried to ask my score to my NCP in Hungary, or any other relevant information. I'll let you know...

Anyway.. assuming NCPs actually know. Would that mean we will hear about results today? It's already 2pm..

I don't think so, the official social media team has already ruled out today.

I don't think timings necessarily matter since they can auto push the notifications out...they don't have to be there for it.

[Simbi]

Very bad if NCPs are actually informing about the score. An honest clarification from MSCA would have been just the right thing. Wtf.
