I only received this email, and no other rejection or acceptance email.

We are deeply sorry, but an error occurred in the software that triggers acceptance emails and you were actually supposed to receive the email below accepting you into the Startup School Advisor Track.

I guess that means, unlike the apparent screwup narrative for others here, we were actually accepted and really did make the cut.




It sounds like it, but it's odd that you didn't receive the prior incorrect email. Have you checked your spam bin?


Yep, not there. Probably GMail's fault not yours, it's been randomly dropping emails recently (have same addresses since 1990s ... heaps of spam .. apparently exceeded daily limits for free GMail tier) so I am in the process of attempting migration to Fastmail. Unfortunately they don't allow Chinese phone numbers to sign up, and their SMS never arrives at my HK number, sigh. Nothing ever easy.
