Anyone else not get an email today after getting the "congrats, you're being reviewed by another evaluator" in October? Not sure what to think LOL

Same here

 

[keviv.27]

it can't be over yet right?

I hope so! I'm still praying to hear back soon.

 

[yapplejuice]

Pre-II R after the "next stage / second evaluator" email in October. Good luck to everyone still waiting!!

 

[TheguythatdrivesEVs]

"reviewing materials to determine next steps" email just now, secondary submitted late July.

 

[geopigeon]

Hit me with another one of these

“Thank you for your interest in Rush Medical College and the time you invested in submitting your application. The admissions committee is presently reviewing your materials to determine appropriate next steps.”

Then reiterated their high volume of applications.

 

[bratzdoll16]

Finally got the "The admissions committee is presently reviewing your materials.." email

 

[asdfgabjkl]

got the initial “we have a lot of apps and we’re reviewing yours” email in october and again today. anyone who got the “you’re at the next step before interviewing” get an email today / app update ?

 

[floridamedapp]

got the initial “we have a lot of apps and we’re reviewing yours” email in october and again today. anyone who got the “you’re at the next step before interviewing” get an email today / app update ?

got the “app forwarded to senior reviewer” email in late october and haven’t heard anything

 

[Basalganglia4life]

it can't be over yet right?

It’s not over! I know a couple of classmates interviewed post Christmas. It’s not over till you get a rejection 🤣

 

[milkywayglass]

+ 1 to “The admissions committee is presently receiving your application materials to determine next appropriate steps” email, and I got a similar email in October

 

[553medicine]

Still haven’t gotten anything after the “senior admissions reviewing next steps in October” anyone else?

 

[volcaniccube13]

Still haven’t gotten anything after the “senior admissions reviewing next steps in October” anyone else?

still haven't either LOL... in this tg

 

[topunderdog]

I just received an email saying my materials have "cleared the review stage" and final determinations will be made in the coming weeks. I also received the "15,000 applicants" email in October. Similar boat anyone? Should I be hopeful?

 

[sulky]

+1 application materials have cleared the review stage and remain under active consideration \(˚☐˚”)/

 

[diabetusdude]

I received "assessing your materials" in October and "presently reviewing your materials" today. Anyone get either pre-ii?

 

[geopigeon]

Maybe it’s best they don’t tell us exactly how app reviews go because it sends us into a tizzy while my brother just laughed his head off at the prospect of them taking 3 months to read my application

 

[volcaniccube13]

still haven't either LOL... in this tg

just kidding finally got the "through review and still under consideration" email

 

[HSim87]

I just received an email saying my materials have "cleared the review stage" and final determinations will be made in the coming weeks. I also received the "15,000 applicants" email in October. Similar boat anyone? Should I be hopeful?

Isn’t this a good thing ? The fact you passed the review stage means they think your app is strong enough that they want to continue considering you for II.

[abe420]

Got the "additional evaluator" email in Oct. No 15K email and no email today. No communication since. I did upload an update letter in December. Waiting to be blessed with an interview TBH

 

[ihavenobackupplan]

[HSim87]

Does rush do voting system? Or scoring?

 

[whamtigeres]

+1 OOS R, I received that ‘we are still reviewing your application’ email in October

 

[dibadelf]

+1 OOS "Application is being reviewed" email... Also got the "application materials being assessed.." email in October. Did anyone else get these prior to an II or R?

+1 OOS but instead of yours I got one that says my "application materials have cleared the review stage and remain under active consideration within our process."

 

[10snakes]

+1 OOS but instead of yours I got one that says my "application materials have cleared the review stage and remain under active consideration within our process."

At first I really appreciated the communication from Rush, but now it feels like I'm being strung along... they've got me though!

 

[XpressoShot]

I received "assessing your materials" in October and "presently reviewing your materials" today. Anyone get either pre-ii?

Yup, the exact same scenario.

 

[asdfgabjkl]

maybe i’m wrong but it seems like these emails are a hold no? like they reviewed it but they didn’t offer interview?

+1 OOS but instead of yours I got one that says my "application materials have cleared the review stage and remain under active consideration within our process."

 

[mochilover12]

got the assessing materials email back in oct and the cleared review stage/under active consideration email today;-; so many different types of emails,,

 

[FutureDoc1014]

Anyone else not get an email today after getting the "congrats, you're being reviewed by another evaluator" in October? Not sure what to think LOL

Same situation 😭

 

[uglywesternblot]

+ 1 "The admissions committee is presently reviewing your materials to determine appropriate next steps" email

 

[khannbushra]

+ 1 IS “cleared the review stage/remain under consideration” email

 

[keviv.27]

these different variations have me so lost lmao. imma crash out. +1 to the "presently reviewing app", same one as in october.

 

[553medicine]

Kinda confused lol. Still haven’t gotten anything after the “senior admissions reviewing next steps in October” anyone else? Silence yesterday and today

 

[CurledAlarmist]

There is also a nonzero chance that we are way over exaggerating the use or point of these emails and might better be serving our mental health by ignoring it

this is the most likely scenario lmao. this cycle just has us all neurotic af

 

[m00nwalk3r]

For folks who have already interviewed how was it? What was the format?

 

[Diesel777]

+1 Pre II OOS R

 

[aceofspades77]

For folks who have already interviewed how was it? What was the format?

It was good overall. Most of the day was presentations from speakers and videos. There was plenty of time to ask questions about various parts of the program. There were 2 interviews: a one-on-one with faculty and an interview with both a student and faculty/staff. The faculty interview was definitely more conversational. The second interview with 2 individuals was a bit more structured with traditional questions (they each asked me a few prepared questions). Nothing was from left-field, you could tell that they were just trying to get to know you!

 

[slippysalamander03]

I also received the "presently reviewing your materials to determine appropriate next steps" email on Friday 1-9 at around 1:30 EST after receiving the "application materials being assessed"/"We've received 15k applications this cycle" email back in late October. 🐱

 

[polymerization]

+1 OOS "cleared the review stage" e-mail. Interesting people are still getting different verbiage. Rush is ripe for portal astrology!

 

[johnzhng]

+1 OOS email about cleared review stage. Just got it now.

exact email body:

We are writing to provide an update on your application status. Your application materials have cleared the review stage and remain under active consideration within our process.

Final determinations, including possible interview invitation, will be made in the coming weeks. We appreciate your patience as we complete our review.

What was the exact wording of your email? it seemed different from mine. I also received the other email instead of the 15k apps email in the fall.

 

[CurledAlarmist]

It is funny how they added this system for transparency and to ease our minds during the process yet we somehow made it into an even more stressful fortune telling event.

I really appreciate the increased communication. Fortune telling aspect is added fun!
