Be Yourself!
Each year, RMC receives over 10,000 AMCAS applications for a class of 144. Out of 10,000+ applications, you were hand-selected by a member of the Committee on Admissions to interview at Rush Medical College. Based on that fact alone, you should be incredibly proud of yourself.
The Recruitment Day at Rush is an opportunity for us to get to know YOU. Through conversational interviews we hope to explore your application further and learn more about your path to medicine. We expect you to know your application inside and out, and be prepared to talk confidently about your accomplishments and aspirations for a career in medicine.
While we realize that interviews can be nerve-wracking, we hope you will find your interview experience at Rush to be low-stress and better yet, enjoyable!
