This thread is being started for people applying to Creighton University's pre-medial post-bac program in 2015. The deadline this year is January 15, 2015.
Hi there! Welcome to the thread. What are your stats? Are you a Nebraska resident? I'm not certain how many people they interview, but I do know that they take about 9 folks per year into the program. We should be hearing something back in the next couple of weeks right?Does anyone know how many interviews they sent out in past cycles?

GPA 3.4
MCAT < 25
I'm excited and nervous as heck! What state are you from?
Wow only nine? Idk why I thought it was 15. No I'm not from Nebraska. Yes by Feb.I hope. I feel like this is going to be like trying to win the lotto
Im from Florida! We should hear back by February. Hopefully they accept more than the usual 9 applicants this year.
Yay: Florida!!! Me too!! The weather up there is definitely going to be a change of pace! Lol! Did you ever call and speak to anyone at Creighton about the program? I think they're pretty set at 9 to keep the program small and familial. Also, I don't think the medical school has gained additional seats, so I don't see them giving additional reserved seats to the post-bac. You never know though. The 3 of us may just "win the lotto!"
Oops!! My fault!! LolDon't play with my emotions like that lol
I just spoke with Ms. Parks in the post-bac office. She said that the deadline was actually extended to today for some individuals who needed a little more time to get their supplemental material turned in, so it may be a little longer than we estimated before we hear back. Hang in there guys!!!
GPA 3.1 MCAT 22
Lets See What Happens
Is that science GPA they're looking at or is that your overall GPA? I sure hope next week brings us some good news!! I'm so anxious.
Overall GPA and do you guys know when we should be hearing back?
Nope, not that we're aware of here on SDN. I'm hoping we begin to hear some good news soon. The original deadline of January 15th was extended to January 22nd or 23rd, so that is probably a reason for the delay in comparison to how quickly they sent interview invitations in previous years. There's also no telling how many apps they received. That would certainly alter the schedule as well.Has anyone been invited to interview yet?
That's true. A couple years ago they found out about interviews around the 14th I believe, so I suppose this isn't too unusual.Nope, not that we're aware of here on SDN.

I applied only to schools that have a post-bac of some sort with linkage to their medical school.This is actually the only post-bacc program I applied to, so we'll see. I've applied to several master's programs, however. Did you apply to several post-baccs?
I know right. It'll be March soon. Maybe they've gotten a ton of applications...like way more than in previous year. That's the only thing that comes to mind.Crickets! Whats going on this year?

Let us know. It's eerily quiet. Any day now though I'm sure....Perhaps! I may email Ms.Parks soon, and post an update in the thread.
Nope!! You?Did you guys hear anything yet?
Nope nothing Yet. Maybe something tomorrow. I know they said they will let us know by the end of the month.Nope!! You?
All I know if that interviews are supposed to be March 28th via Skype. That's a Saturday. That's what I was told when I asked about the status of applications...."the committee still has the applications and as soon as decisions are made, applicants will receive an email, but interviews will take place on Saturday, March 28 via Skype." Let's hope we hear something today (Friday) since the month will be over. It's super frustrating.Nope nothing Yet. Maybe something tomorrow.

Do you know how many people applied this year?All I know if that interviews are supposed to be March 28th via Skype. That's a Saturday.

I have no clue.Do you know how many people applied this year?
I'm just kind of exhausted with it all right now. Lol. It all seems to be a toss up as to when they'll get around to us. I keep hypothesizing and thinking of all these wild scenarios as to why its taking significantly longer this year than in previous years. I'm driving myself crazy!!!!I have a feeling that we may not hear for a while then if they aren't until the end of the month and via Skype, wouldn't you think?

Welcome!! I'm glad you found us! Yes, it's been quite the extended wait. I'm hoping for the best.Hey everyone. I'm glad I found this thread. I applied to the program this year. My stats are GPA: 3.6/3.2 (overall/science) and MCAT = 18. I've called a few times and they said that they were still looking over applications. That has been a few weeks, though. I am from Nebraska as well! Hope to hear back soon!
