Thanks for letting us know! Do you mind telling us what it says, for those of us who haven't gotten it yet? Thanks a ton 🙂
It said some stuff about the mission of Rush in general and then basically said that the process takes a while and "Please rest assured that your application is still under consideration." And then welcomed updates to the app portal if necessary.

Lol it definitely does not. You can see the neuroticism thriving in this year's admissions on this page of the thread though lol
To everyone's credit, this process is rather inhumane and enough to drive the most sane, rational person to the edge .. hope is a powerful thing.
Just received an update letter around 8PM last night. OOS, complete 7/11.

Guys don't panic, last cycle the same thing was happening. Some would get updates on one day, others would get them a few days later, some not at all. In all cases it means nothing, but I understand the nerves because I had em last year too!
Can confirm, I went through last year's thread a few months ago. Makes no difference who got it and made no difference as to interviews. Per someone on last year's thread who went back to the 2019-2020 thread:
"OK. so I was about to go crazy with this email so I did some stalking on last year's thread. It seems like the email held no value!!!!!!!!!! SO WE CAN RELAX!!!! people who did not receive the email got II and people who did receive the email also got II. Nobody knows why Rush even sent that email (last year was the school's first try with the email)."

Nobody knows why Rush even sent that email (last year was the school's first try with the email)."
The inconsistency is slightly annoying though. Every year there's some kind of computer glitch where one school sends out interviews or acceptances to all applicants rather than a select list, or here's an example of where some applicants but not all receive communications.
Is it just my expectations that are too high or do others also feel like this kind of thing is fairly unacceptable, given the standard they hold applicants to..
I don't remember which school, but I think one of them spelled "medicine" wrong on the payment page for the secondary submission.

Lol JUST got the update email.
SAME. The subject line of that email should not say Admissions Status Update ... that was not an update to my admissions status. My heart can't take that kind of stress, lol.

complete same time and still haven't received the update.
Big day tomorrow...I feel like one of the three contestants in the Top Chef finale...happy to have made it this far but not good enough to be the winner...
EDIT: I used the Top Chef analogy because the finale has three chefs and only one can win, which is about statistically the acceptance rate post-interview.
