1) Yes they do but its their first year of doing it pre-II I dont' think it will make much of a difference. And I wouldn't bother submitting a letter of intent Pre-II thats a little much....

yeah i got that one. sent an update too
(New to this thread, hi!) Just got an II! Complete 8/3 and got the email about 30 minutes ago. I've only done MMIs before so I'm a little nervous! What's the interview like? I know the gist of the format from the info I got on the app portal but do they tend to ask more general questions about medicine or are they asking specific questions about your app? And are the open file interviews one on one or is it multiple faculty members?
Take a deep breathe 😉 go ahead and read the beginning of the thread all your questions are answered in this thread.

8/20 — got the “your app is still under consideration” email in mid Sept
Does anyone have any experience rescheduling an interview here, or know if they are receptive to it?

You're not alone - I'm in the same boat.
So if we never received a “still under consideration” email, should we assume an R?
Nope
I haven’t either

Interviewed on 1/8 and I was placed on hold basically? They were like it’s not a waitlist, we want to reevaluate your application again. What does this mean?
Isn't that the "still under consideration" email that people have been getting throughout the year? In any case, its better than a WL.
Waitlisted also
Dang, anyone at all get accepted from 1/8? I know last year even some of the mid-Feb interviewees were getting accepted outright.

Still waiting...Anyone know when those under active consideration will hear back?
Any current Rush students here that wouldn't mind answering a few questions over PM? Not so much about the academics, more about the culture/community aspects of Rush 🙂
When did you interview?
based on what my understanding from earlier in the interview cycle, it means that they wanted to be able to compare your application against a larger pool of applicants outside of your week. Definitely not an insult or a bad thing but they just needed more time. This is how I interpreted what they said. As someone who was waitlisted at 3 schools last year and never got in, I feel your pain. Keep pushing through though!
Also 1/8
