How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

AMCAS Application, Creighton University Site and Medical Student Site, SDN, and read magazines (don't stress... no major prep required!)

What impressed you positively?

The students and faculty (including interviewees) were all so happy and friendly. As I was standing outside after my interview, everyone that walked by smiled and said hello-- very welcoming community. The facilities were also recently updated.

What impressed you negatively?

Omaha (despite some beautiful architecture and a nice downtown old market) is pretty drab and old.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY-- DON'T WEAR HEELS!!! Apparently Omaha and Creighton didn't get the memo that NE is supposed to be flat. The tour includes hiking up and down flights of stairs indoors and out.

What are your general comments?

I was pretty sick, but I managed to hold-up during the interviews. The interviews are completed in the first part of the day and the rest of it is just lunch and tours. The interviews are short and there's little time to get into detail. Get to know Creighton and Omaha-- ask students about their experiences in the area and explore for yourself. This interview is also designed for you to get to know Creighton!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
