I can see it on my AMCAS. Double check to make sure you didn't already add it. It is listed as "Creighton University School of Medicine" and is also shows up when you sort by state.
I can't answer your question exactly, but I can say that typically the number of NE residents in the incoming class has been around 10-15 (out of 152), and at my interview, they said that usually about 25% of the incoming class are creighton undergrads. how many of the NE residents are also Creighton undergrads, I don't know. hope that helps! -incoming M1
@mdparrot You can add a thread to your watched threads without actually posting in it. In the future, it might be better to do that than comment on every thread you want to watch.
Didn't know that! Thanks
Ooops- lol!Haha @mdparrot - we're apparently applying to a ton of the same schools I got a bunch of notifications lol
Good luck!
Best of luck to you this cycle! Let's hope our school lists are good
I was not trying to be rude to that member. I was just informing him or her that it is possible to add a thread to one's watched threads without posting. Many users don't know this. He or she did not seem to be offended by my post. I certainly did not mean it in a rude way.
Creighton's loyalty to Hawaiians dates back to World War II. During WWII, there were very few schools that would accept Asian-American Hawaiians, and Creighton was one of them. Understandably, a lot of Hawaiians ended up at Creighton at that time. Because of that, it became a popular school for Hawaiians, and Creighton has tried to maintain its relationship with Hawaii ever since.
No, it isn't out yet. It will be out very soon, though.
I'm briefly mentioning the activities.
Yes, absolutely. Creighton does not apologize for being Catholic, so you should not be applying here if you'll be uncomfortable with things such as getting emails inviting you to a university-wide opening of school year Mass (that you absolutely do not have to attend if you do not wish to attend). That being said, they also do not expect you to practice Catholicism, Christianity, or any religion at all. They will expect you to embrace Jesuit values pertaining to loving and serving others, but they won't have a problem if you aren't religious. The main thing is that you won't be offended by the presence of the Catholic religion around you. They won't be shoving it down your throat or requiring you to participate in religious practices, but some people are upset if they even encounter religion (like the crucifixes that hang in every classroom). If this is you, Creighton is not the school for you. You should also be aware that Creighton is part of the CHI (Catholic Health Initiatives) healthcare network. This means that clerkship sites will also have crosses and religious quotes on the walls sometimes. Again, it will not be expected that you participate in religious stuff, but if you would feel weird about doing clerkships in hospitals that have the word God on the walls, then you wouldn't like Creighton.
As far as the actual practice of those things, it kind of depends on what you're talking about. I know for certain that CHI provides certain healthcare services that do not perfectly align with Catholic teachings pertaining to reproduction (such as providing birth control). However, I don't know if they go so far as to offer abortions. I feel like they probably do not. As far as end of life care, what exactly are you referring to? The major Catholic teaching on end of life care is that euthanasia is immoral, but physician-assisted suicide is not legal in Nebraska, so this shouldn't be a problem.
I called the Admissions office and was told that as long as we take the course (preferably at a 4 year institution) before matriculation to Creighton, it will be fine. I'll worry about taking care of that if I'm offered admissionI'm wondering the same. I took physio at cc, and the MSAR has a red X for community college accepted...
Did you attend Catholic school for grade school/high school, but not undergrad? All of my schooling has been Catholic schools so far, and Catholic college is very different from Catholic grade school and high school (in my experience, anyway).
I figured you might not have done Catholic undergrad. I have found it to be different (in a good way, in my opinion) from my Catholic pre-school through high school experience.Catholic pre-school right up through high school. At that point I had enough and went for a secular university. Catholic medical school doesn't sound bad though, as long as they are heavy on the community service and light on the judging people
What is the nature of the problem? Is PayPal telling you it isn't going through, or is it just Creighton telling you that it isn't going through? If it's PayPal, I didn't have any problems. If it's Creighton, look to see if you have a confirmation email from PayPal saying that you paid. If so, the problem is because of a glitch in Creighton's system. In that case, stop attempting to make payments, and contact Creighton in order to fix the issue.
The main thing is to stop attempting to pay. At this point, you've probably already paid $285 since the problem is almost certainly that Creighton's system isn't receiving the information correctly. I'm sure they'll refund it, but I'd definitely still stop trying to make payments.
