Anybody know Creightons post interview acceptance rate. Freaking out just a little bit

Last year was 61%, this year will be closer to 53% (assuming that the matriculants:acceptances ratio remains equal)

 

[EDlover23]

Oh why is it dropping this year?

Oh why is it dropping this year?

They are interviewing ~80 more people

 

[huskerne]

Interviewed on October 29th. Any guessing when will we hear the decision?

 

[colormecolorful]

Anyone interviewing December 9? 🙂

Didn't they say to expect a decision around the first week of January?

 

[huskerne]

Thank you for visiting campus message gone. Interviewed on 10/29.

Interviewed 10/29. My message and letters are both gone. Are your letters gone as well?

Yes, both gone.

 

[Orthosurg1]

Ooooh I hope you all hear back shortly! 🙂

 

[Faith&Med]

Late submission - secondary considered complete and ready for review on 11/8. Anyone know how long/if interviews are still being offered?

 

[huskerne]

No email yet on the decision....waiting game....
@Orthosurg1 : Can we call them?

@Orthosurg1 : Can we call them?

If I remember my timeline correctly, I think on a Thursday I noticed that my 'thank you for visiting campus' had disappeared. Then on either Sunday or Monday my letters disappeared. Then I received the acceptance on a Wednesday, both via email and portal. Not that I'm saying they always give out decisions on Wednesdays, because I'm really not sure. So I personally didn't call the admissions office, but I know plenty of people did, so you wouldn't be alone if you called!

Let me know if you end up calling them!

Alternate!
Just my portal got updated.
@Orthosurg1: What is the difference between alternate and wait list? Do I have any chances to get in this year?

I'm not 100% sure, but I think alternate status is the same as being waitlisted. Historically, I really don't know what movement off of the waitlist has looked like. But I would imagine there's definitely still a chance!

[Vocoded Super Saw]

Is it safe to assume those of us complete back in July/August who have not been invited will be rejected?

 

[colormecolorful]

Hey everyone! I interview tomorrow and I was wondering, what did everyone bring to their interview? Copy of AMCAS? Paper? Pens? I have literally no idea

You don't need to bring anything! They will give you a folder and a pen when you get there, and you can take notes (if you feel like it) on the papers in the folder! Good luck! 🙂

No worries, @mishamichii. 🙂 I understand the utility of that info and should have included it in my original post (SDN etiquette)!

II, complete late sept. does creighton do mostly rolling admissions? trying to figure out which interview date to choose. choices are 4 consecutive friday/saturdays? in terms of admissions, is there any obvious advantage to pick the earliest date?

Anyone know if there is a fb group/page for accepted students?

 

[colormecolorful]

Interviewed 12/9
This school makes me so excited. I wasn't sure what to expect going in, but everyone was SO nice and accommodating. Here's hoping.. they had suggestions for quite a few updates to my application.

I was just there this past Friday, and Dr. Barone said that they'll end up accepting 325. That's about half of the interviewers.

 

[Soccer_Doc]

Thank you for visiting message and LORs disappeared. Interviewed 11/12

Offered an Interview here but will be withdrawing, I hope one of y'all get the opportunity!

Does Creighton actually read through updates?

 

[colormecolorful]

Does Creighton actually read through updates?

YES! Creighton finds updates VERY important and they said numerous times that they see them as an indicator of interest.
