✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

10 out of 10

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

Review my own application and write out a list of reasons why I want to attend Creighton.

What impressed you positively?

Very positive atmosphere and friendly people. My interviewers were very kind - not looking to make me uncomfortable just get to know me for who I am.

What impressed you negatively?

Having my interview over Zoom (COVID19)

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Make sure you review the core values of the school! I was asked to name which one I think was the most important. Unfortunately, I didn't memorize the core values and had to ask my interviewer what they were. She didn't seem to hold this against me but I definitely should have reviewed them before the interview.

What are your general comments?

The school seems to be VERY mission focused (service orientation, Jesuit, etc.). If you align with those values, own it!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Find a way for applicants to visit the school in person despite COVID19. Or maybe offer a personalized video tour of the campus/facilities by a student.
