How did you prepare for the interview?

I used SDN to research questions that come up commonly, and made sure I thought about my answers so I wouldn't freeze when they were asked.

What impressed you positively?

I was impressed by the friendliness of everyone involved with my interview/tour of the school. The student leading my tour was very knowledgeable and gave me helpful tips in preparation for the actual interview. While sitting in the lobby waiting to interview, the receptionist was always around making conversation with us interviewees which helped keep my nerves low.

What impressed you negatively?

The facility is a little dated, and tuition is quite expensive.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

I was one of 6 interviewees scheduled. We were all scheduled at 1:00, so the order of our arrival determined the order in which we were interviewed. I was second to last, but that meant I got a tour BEFORE the interview, which I found to be helpful. If you want to get out of there right away, arrive a little bit earlier. Dr. Norton, the interviewer is very friendly and makes you feel so comfortable during the interview. Creighton was sort of a last choice for me, but my interview visit impressed me a lot. They make you feel welcome and wanted, rather than the "prove to us why you are good enough to come here" tactic that other schools take.
