No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, Creighton's website, amcas, and secondary

What impressed you positively?

Excellent curriculum and facilities. The upperclass students really help the 1st and 2nd years, and the class is not competitive. Curriculum is geared towards boards, and students do well. Everyone is happy to be there.

What impressed you negatively?

All schools are on the same campus, meaning shared union and sports areas with undergrads. Some students had elitist mentalities.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Even though students come from all over the country, MOST are from the Midwest.

What are your general comments?

Day is just like schedule in email. You get the faculty interview over with early, and the student interview is nothing to stress over as it's in the hospital cafeteria at lunch time. The afternoon is a bit long. Overall, it's pretty relaxed, no ethical questions.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
