I know a handful of people got update emails on 10/24 stating their application has moved on to the next step of the process and an additional evaluator reviewing it. Has anybody who received that email also received an II since then? I haven’t heard anything since receiving the email so I’m just wondering.

 

[JPace24]

I still havent got anything since I submitted my secondary on 7/7. Am i cooked? This was one of my "safety" schools.

There is no such thing as as safety school for medical school.

Erm well *ackshually* Ross University, the Caribbean cousin of Rush University, is a safety school for those willing to pack their bags and get some Vitamin Sea 🏝️☀️

There are a few people confirming that got that email before their II within the last two weeks, earlier in the thread

I got that email on 10/24 but have heard nothing so far. Losing hope tbh especially considering there was an II wave since then

Based on past cycles, when does Rush usually stop sending IIs?

They stopped in February early march I think last year. I interviewed in December and didn’t even get my interview till late November. Still plenty of time

For those of you receiving interviews, did you feel your profile was heavy on community service/connected to the mission?

I am still waiting. Going to send in an update letter p r o n t o

 

[mathwiz1697]

Did anyone get a message that their application wasn’t submitted? But I just logged in and it says my application was submitted…

I am confused what youre trying to say. Did you get an email that your app wasnt submitted? did they have all t he components?

 

[mathwiz1697]

Just checked. Apparently I never sent them my Casper score :/ everything else was complete. But they withdrew my app since I didn’t have it in. Ugh. Totally my fault but annoyed at myself for not doing this

thats unfortunate, and why I triple check everything so that My secondary is one of the last things they need ti complete my app.

 

[studyingallday]

are they now sending out post-secondary rejections?

 

[not_houseMD]

has anyone who got the email saying there's 15000 applications and your application is being reviewed currently gotten an II? not the email talking about the evaluator but the email saying app is under review and it might take time.

Hi, yes! I got the email 10/24 and received interview invite on 11/7.

Thank you for submitting your application to Rush Medical College. The admissions committee is currently assessing your materials to determine the next steps in our evaluation process.

I don’t get how this is a bad thing

 

[mathwiz1697]

I don’t get how this is a bad thing

If people who didn't get the under review email originally are getting interviews and I, someone who got the under review email originally, am not, it indicates to me that my application isn't going to be strong enough for interview if its being side lined, despite being under review earlier

but i see other people getting II after receiving that email. Given the huge number of applications, we should give more time and stay hopeful

I got the other email that I moved to the next stage and still haven’t gotten an II so you really never know how it works 🤷‍♂️

OOS A over the holiday weekend on Black Friday! First ever A after multiple cycles!

I was so shocked they emailed over the holiday weekend.

[SilentCavalier]

Interviewed here recently. For admitted applicants, how soon were they able to turn around decisions following an interview? They gave us about two weeks as an estimate.

At my interview they said it would normally be 10 days however our turnaround time would be interrupted due to Thanksgiving. My decision took 16 days.

Admit shows RUSH paused II in December last year. Anyone receive anything recently?

There's interview slots for 12/10 and one more day before Christmas . I think it was 12/17 or 12/18, something like that.

those are slots for ppl with II already. not necessarily interview invites

 

[553medicine]

Yes apologies, I meant for invites

 

[553medicine]

Rush is my top choice school. For those of you who received II or A, was community service/health equity a huge piece of your app? In what ways? For any current students, do they send out a good amount of II post the holidays? Really holding out hope

yes community service and health equity are very important to rush! a lot of the current class was accepted after January/ feb interviews. You are still good

 

[ilostmyscapel]

Hi y'all! Quick question: would it be a bad sign if I haven't gotten an II from Rush at this point? From what Basalgangla4life said regarding their current class, I'm worried about receiving an II during or after January - February.
