I've been complete on the portal for over two months but never received an email. Is that not normal?

I'm in the same situation; completed mid August. I have heard nothing!
Me too, complete since 8/5 and not a peep!
Do we know if they are receptive to in the area emails? My father is living in Chicago for work until December and I'm going to visit come late November.
Of the 3 people who mentioned that they did this year, only 1 was successful.
+1. Come on, Rush! I like you and I live so close by!!
A bunch of us got decisions last week (October 15-17).
Rushhhhhh
You only 30 minutes away from meeeee
gimme some loveee

Wait listed few days ago 🙁 I was not expecting this considering the fact that I thought my interview went very well.
Does anyone know what is the prospective for applicants who are wait listed?
What percentage of wait list people get accepted?

+1.. Feels like a silent rejection
do you mind saying what date exactly you interviewed on? sorry to hear that..
Woke up to an email from RUSM and was I was like "yay Rush!!.." too stoked until I saw it was from some Caribbean school 🙁
Last year they pulled a good amount off the waitlist. I don't know how deep but I think it was >20. More competitive applicants = more spots taken up by less people (multiple acceptances) = pulling deeper from the roster.
I had the exact same email this morning and felt the exact same disappointment 🙁
Yes mine did.
Unfortunately rejected this morning post-interview. Interviewed mid October. Good luck to everyone else!
same.. I thought the interview went well so not really sure what happened. 🙁
For those who have accepted their offer for admission, did you receive an email from Rush themselves confirming that you confirmed? (I have nightmares about missing the deadline because of an administration problem)

I can totally relate. I did not receive anything from them after I confirmed my acceptance, but the portal shows that I have confirmed a spot in their class.
Glad I am not the only one. My portal doesn't say that yet but I did pay. Hopefully it will update soon. Thanks for the response!
You said that the portal shows that you confirmed a spot in the class.
Where exactly is that notification? Thanks in advance!
Edit: Never mind, I see it!

If you click "Admission Offer" on the top and then click "Submit Offer" on the left, there's a nice little letter about upcoming steps. In the last paragraph of that little letter, it says "Finally, this confirms receipt of your tuition deposit, which secures you a position in our entering class. We look forward to officially welcoming you to the Rush community at orientation in August and working with you throughout your medical education."
Anyone complete mid-Sept receive an II yet?
Has anyone who interviewed on October 15 heard back? They said to expect an email within three weeks, and I wanted to ask since today marks the third week. Thanks!
I interviewed on the 15th and was accepted via email on October 31st. I remember at the interview they said it may be sooner or later depending on when the interviewers write the report. Best of luck!
I hope your friend received good news! Thanks for the info. I'll be on the lookout this Friday.
Congrats! And thank you!
Hi any recent II?
Does anyone know if the school is receptive to "In the Area" emails?
They were not with me. Polite but unaccommodating. Still, can't hurt.
They weren't able to accommodate my letter
So then it seems like from your and NervousNerd's responses that a formal letter was attached to an email? And I agree, as the worst that they can say is No.
No I didn't attach a formal letter. I just followed a normal format for an email.

What time during the day did the school send out application status emails?
9 am exactly
Hmm.. still haven't received an email
