Asking your NCP or host institution now might also come across as very pushy, since the results are supposed to be out tomorrow. I will only contact them if I haven't received an email by Wednesday.

[MscaEnv]

I did it. No way

If they are willing to do it. Mine simply said no, like many others. This is the problem!

Maybe if you please your host professor, he/she may get information in a second. That was my way.

Informed already or not, better way is to wait for official information. As i see, lot of people left this forum, probably they also got information from their sources...

[danGFSOC]

Well, I will go for them. Now in lunch break

If they are willing to do it. Mine simply said no, like many others. This is the problem!

Come on guys, it is all upon your ncps, host or home institution. They all have results already. It's monday, call them all and they will give you results. All they have them except candidates. I got mine directly from host, and my girlfriend from her host ncp. Good luck.

Maybe if you please your host professor, he/she may get information in a second. That was my way.
Btw each of us has two ncps, in host and home country . One will give.

My potential mentor is so socially awkward that I don’t want to put him in the position of telling me it’s a rejection. Also applies to the admin of the research centre. True story.

I contacted both host and home NCP and both refuse to give me results.

Hey everyone, been following and posting occasionally, shocked by the leaks last Friday and the Commission's selective statements that either are very vague or suggest the leaks didn't happen.

I've applied on the CAR panel for myself but work in a research office of a very successful UK institution supporting developing applications like the MSCA IF, etc, so know the process inside out - let's see if it works in my favour! I can definitely confirm we have no info on successful applications yet. I can say from a GDPR (general data protection regulation) perspective the Turkish NCP is likely to be in big trouble, as they shared people's personal data without their consent. It's possible they can argue it's anonymous as the identifier has not been included, but if acronyms were there other people's results could have been found. I'm sure they were trying to help and put people out of their misery, but the legislation doesn't allow for that, especially as personal data was being leaked potentially out of the EU, which also is an issue. That's just from my limited understanding of GDPR. Now I wish my NCP would get back to me with info! No info from Poland so far for me...

To ask again on the thresholds, what about CAR and CHEM, have those been declared yet? Good luck to all!

No this is no true. NCP has only your project ID, and score with result. They haven't names of applicants nor titles of projects. I asked them. So confidentiality is high.

That's pretty funny
I created a new thread in your honour :

My host institution just told me they do not know anything, so I do not think all hosts know. It probably depends on how confidential with the info the NCP of such country is.

The same here (a UK university)
