2023-2024 Creighton

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I was accepted to the Omaha campus but am interested in the Phoenix campus primarily because it is much closer to home (2 hr flight vs 6 hour flight). Is there anything to be concerned about with switching over to the newer campus from the POV of PDs or any other factors?

Should be fine. They said the sooner the easier to switch. I will be vacating my Phoenix acceptance in April probably so they'll be at least one spot there for you.
 
Has anyone received communication about upcoming visitation days? I was accepted in October and have not heard about anything other than the visitation day in November which I was unable to attend.

I remember from interview day that 4/6 is the second look at the Omaha campus but I have not received my decision yet.
 
I want to go, but I have an in-person interview at UofA on 2/5 so it sucks the timing doesn't work. too broke to go across the country twice in two weeks :/
I'm sure if you asked the admissions office if you could schedule a tour since you can't make it to second look they would try to accommodate you! They seem pretty friendly. Good luck with UofA!
 
did anything besides the thank you message disappearing change on your application status page before you got the A?
Nope. Thank you message disappeared and received decision on Monday around 11 (Omaha). I never saw the admitted students day RSVP.

No other changes beside the thank you message disappearing Friday (maybe even thursday) and I got the A on the following Monday around noon
 
did anyone get invited to the admitted students day in the portal before receiving a decision?

This happened to me! You'll receive the acceptance email shortly, I'm sure. I was a bit confused as well but I know that's happened a few times now.
 
If you already submitted an update for one category (like clinical experiences) and want to send a second update letter, does anyone know if it re-writes / replaces the first one? My second letter is completely unrelated to the first one so I want both to be there but I'm afraid of submitting it in case it does replace it.
 
Has the thank you message disappeared for anyone who interviewed the week of December 11th? They said we would get our decision this coming Monday or the next. I'm hoping that it will be the next because mine is still there...

Does anyone know how financial aid works? How long after acceptance do you get a financial aid packet or scholarship?
I called the financial aid office a few days ago; they mentioned that they'll starting pulling information from your FAFSA near the end of January and hoping to provide financial aid packet sometime in February (can't remember if they said a few weeks or a month). From what it seems like, scholarships are handled by a different person/office and I'm not too sure what the timeline for that looks like.
 
Does anyone remember when the second look day in April is for the phoenix campus? I thought they mentioned it at some point but I can't seem to find it now!
 
Question. What is the post-II acceptance rate for Creighton? Saw on their website they interviewed 930 and admitted 252 last year but does the 252 mean people who enrolled in the class or total admitted ?

I think the 252 refers to the total number of students who ended up matriculating for both the Omaha and the Phoenix campuses combined. They always accept more at least 1.5-2x class size I would guess and congrats on the interview by the way!
 
OOS II for Phoenix campus! was also in my spam folder good thing I checked lol

wait how do you know which campus you got your ii from? I put my preferance to Phoenix campus but all my interviewers were from Omaha campus. Is there a way to find out?

I don't think it matters what campus the interviewers were from IIRC. I only found out the campus once I got the A

I preferenced phoenix and interviewed with a student and staff member from the phoenix campus. n=1 though
 
I'm pretty sure they do not consider your campus selection during the interview or the final decision. The interviewers are randomly assigned from either campus and do not know your preference. I was interviewed by a student from Pheonix and faculty from Omaha.

I second this, during my interview I remember hearing the admissions committee does not know or factor in the campus preference. Even the interviewers did not know it. The school also seemed very flexible in terms of wanting to do their best to ensure accepted students get their preferences during the interview and reminded us to email them if our campus preference changed before getting a decision.

Same case for me. And I put Omaha as my preference and got it.
 
Other than location, weather, COL, etc., does anyone think there’s any difference whatsoever between the Omaha and Phoenix campus? I’m talking difference with research opportunities or exposure to various specialties? I have NO idea which campus to choose and NO idea which field of medicine I want to pursue, so I just want to keep my options as open as possible. Things like location matter very little to me.
