This one stung because the admissions guy said I had a good shot at an interview when I called a while back

"...the response to your request for admission is not positive." Yeesh, quite frank. I can only picture people sitting around a table looking at my application and discussing how awful it is.

If you do will you let me know if they're willing to do that? Thanks!

Yeah definitely! I'm thinking I'll call tomorrow.
I saw that they are willing to do that. Someone wrote something about that on another thread that he/she called and CU gave feedback.
Can anyone who has interviewed comment on their thoughts on Creighton/the faculty/facilities, etc? Thanks!!
I love the community. It seems very collaborative and supportive, and it seems like people work hard while also managing to do things they enjoy. To me, the community is one of the biggest strengths of Creighton. The faculty seems friendly and willing to help students, so that's also nice. As far as the facilities, the medical school classrooms and labs aren't that nice. I think they are currently shuffling things around and doing some construction on the clinical areas that students will be practicing in, so it's kind of hard to say what that will be like. There are a lot of different facilities to do your rotations in, though, because CHI has a lot of hospitals in the area that you can complete various rotations at. Bergan Mercy is the main one, but there are many others to do rotations at.
Rejected as well!
Rejected. There goes the chance to be Dr. McBuckets...
I'm sorry to hear about the decision, but that was a killer reference.
Rejected earlier this week. Good luck everyone.
Alternate Status email received this morning. Interviewed 12/11. I am assuming this is the same as waitlist.
did they mention when the renovations would be completed?
I don't recall, sorry.

Both. You receive an email about it, and they ask you to RSVP in your portal.
Anybody else have an acceptance conditional on completion of a physiology course. I'm in my gap year and thought I had a course lined up for the summer, but now I want to travel and am looking for something with more flexibility. Essentially looking for a self-paced online course. Any suggestions?
I also have a conditional acceptance based on the completion of physiology. You have to make sure the online course follows their rules for where you can complete a pre req course.

Sorry if this has been covered already, but what is "Day with the Jays"? I interviewed 1/29 and my letters disappeared Friday. Now my portal has invitations to "Day with the Jays" at Omaha/Phoenix.

Did you get an acceptance email already? Or did you only see a change in the portal?
I just noticed the change on the portal. My letters disappeared when yours did on Friday, but I didn't see the invitation then. As of right now, I'm just looking at it as a reason to be cautiously optimistic before hearing definitively one way or another.
I submitted a plan to complete the requirement back in November and it was accepted. I'm just trying to find out if anyone found and got Creighton to accept a particularly flexible plan. Know of anything?

Accepted via email this morning!
They expect that the new building at Bergan for Creighton M3s and M4s clinical rotations will be ready Fall 2017. So it would be ready in time for everyone currently an M1 and on.
Accepted! First one! Interviewed 1/29.
Did your acceptance letter state your acceptance was conditional on completion of a physiology course? I don't see that anywhere in my letter and haven't formally accepted the offer in my portal either. Just being cautious haha
I also had an acceptance contingent upon completion of physiology, but I don't think that was explicitly stated in the email I got. Rather, I think they mentioned it in my acceptance packet. I can't remember if it was in the acceptance packet or later that I got something from them that specifically asked me to submit a plan for how I would complete outstanding requirements.
