I got the same email! I am assuming it means that my app was not accepted... it's too bad to have to wait 24 hours before confirming it, though! Sigh.

Greetings all! First-time poster here - I must say, finding this forum has made me feel much better (well, most of the time!) about everything. Brazilianbuddy, I am right with you - I wish I had come across these conversations sooner, as I feel that I could have made improvements or done things a bit differently if I had known certain things from the get-go. And it helps diminish the sense of anxiety or disappointment to know that this is an intense and stressful process for everyone, no matter what the outcome, and there's something to be said for strength in numbers. I have been wait-listed at my first choice, but have no clue what the chances are of getting admitted from the wait list, of course. Other than that, I have wallowed through a bevy of rejections, and as for the still "pending" apps, I am in the "no news is bad news" zone, and trying to mentally move on, make new plans for next year, and think about what I can do to improve my chances for the next round. Thanks to everyone for the helpful comments and support!
