Is it a bad thing if we don't get the interim e-mail? I'm concerned that translates into an unofficial rejection...

They interview into April I believe, so there's still the possibility of II by maybe around March. Don't lose hope just yet, the interim email may still be coming!

I'm not sure but from what I read from it, the email didn't seem positive or negative. From what I've seen in the past threads, people don't like to feel ignored and basically this is a note to say "Don't expect anything from us in the next few weeks. Also, don't call, we're working on getting through these applications". Just my opinion but I wouldn't read too much into it either way.

I think I would agree with you, but then shouldn't it go to everyone? Seems strange that only certain people would receive it.

I received two interim emails.....After I cancelled my interview...
 
I think we've had enough paranoia about this interim email to go around and we should move on to enjoy the holidays and spend time with our loved ones. Unless we get an email that includes a sentence like "our committee has carefully reviewed your qualifications and while you're a promising candidate...," we're still in the game. This isn't that email and, frankly, I don't think it helps to blindly read into what this could or couldn't mean. Let's take a collective deep breath and a chill pill.

For those who have received the acceptance email, have you also received the physical letter packet yet? I got my email on the 14th but still no mail

HEY! I got my acceptance on the same date (14th) and I haven't received my letter packet yet either. I'm literally going crazy waiting for it. I thought it was just me as well. So, they must be behind because of the holidays smh.
 
HEY GUYS!

I just wanted to wish you all a happy holidays. I am a current M1 and I just wanted to let you all know that everyone of my classmates have been in your shoes. Don't make the mistake I made and stress out the entire holiday season. Enjoy your family and friends and everything will work out like its supposed to! 🙂

Well Said!
 
Hey guys. I applied late August and haven't received anything but interim e-mails. Is this a silent rejection?
 
Hello, I applied in December. Is this too late? Also I am still waiting on 1 of my LORs. Would that need to be received before my application can be reviewed ?

Same here. I also noticed that it says "Please email Judith Walk at [email protected] to confirm that you have received the Acceptance correspondence" in the acceptance email. Does that mean we email her confirming that we received the acceptance email or the letter packet?
