Rush is looking for applicants with many more hours of clinical and non clinical volunteering than you have. I suggest adding more schools to your application and consider these:
Florida State

Florida International
NOVA MD
Drexel
Pittsburgh
Cincinnati
Hofstra
New York Medical College
Rochester
Virginia Commonwealth
Eastern Virginia
Western Michigan
Oakland Beaumont
