What impressed you positively?

The clinical experience will be awesome at Creighton. There are no specialty schools, so you do everything, and will have the opportunity to do every procedure numerous times. A great place to live, and huge patient pool.

What impressed you negatively?

The fact that they still have not integrated computers into the program. Most schools have some sort of laptop based program while they use paper everything. There also isnt a sim lab.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How humid Omaha is, and public transportation is almost zero.

What are your general comments?

Creighton does interview visits and does not invite people for interviews, so its on you to schedule them if you want to see the school. It is however a worthwhile experience, in which you have real meeting with the dean and you get to tour the school with a student and see the clinic and ask questions. I thought it was great and would have done it again. Creighton trains awesome clinicians, and Omaha is not as bad of a town as I had thought.
