What impressed you positively?
Creighton is an excellent school. They go out of your way to make you feel welcome, and their Pharm.D program is absolutely top-notch. You probably won't find another school that is as technologically advanced as Creighton is.
What impressed you negatively?
Omaha isn't the best location. There are areas surrounding the campus that are run-down and shady, so make sure to avoid those areas. The public transportation system isn't too great, and so you'll definitely need to bring a car if you're planning on attending this school.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
The interview day is long and may even seem a bit tedious. It would be a good idea to bring something to munch on during the day, although they do give you snacks and water at some point.
