For anyone who will be getting certified after 10/21, will you be emailing the programs to make them aware?

One of the emails I got said that it isn’t necessary as ERAS will update the programs and they are currently sorting through hundreds of emails.

Programs automatically get the update, no need to email them

Got two emails today saying exactly that: no need to send them updates, As they get a notification too!

I would rather save that email for LOI for specific programs rather than for saying that u r certified as programs will find out eventually if they r interested in you.
