Would it be better to send an update about a publication that is accepted pending minor revisions or wait until the publication is actually accepted to send the update? I do not know how long it will take them to review the revised publication (which was already submitted) and ultimately accept it or not, and so, the publication might not be accepted until several months from now.

This update would be a post-interview update for a particular school to hopefully give my application an extra push towards acceptance for the next acceptance date in November. Thank you.

It's fair to include an acceptance of a manuscript pending minor revisions in an update letter (if you are up front about its exact status). It's better to include mention of it after you have an assigned publication date. It's better yet when you have a PMID# or DOI to report.

Do you have a copy of the email or letter that gives the status of the paper? Be sure to hang on to it.

Would you attach the copy of the email to the application update?
