2024-2025 Creighton

Med School Insiders
This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
interviewed week of 11/20, still have the thank you message :/
 
I think the thank you messages typically disappear late Thursday or Friday so I would look out for them! FYI, mine disappeared last Thursday evening around 7pm PST (that's when I checked so could be earlier) and got my decision on Monday. No info on accepted student day posted.
 
Still on the alt list here. Trying to remember what they said the process was going forward. I believe they said they'll review again in the spring, so does that mean we shouldnt expect any further WL movement until then if we didnt get off now?

Wrote nearly the same exact thing down. While it was certainly discomfiting to me and I wish that weren't their perspective/intent, I am very glad that he said that so that I can make decisions with it in mind. I didn't get the chance to ask any of the students about the religious influence from their perspective during my interview, but I do just want to note that my faculty interviewer was part of the hospital system for years before it was purchased (?) by Creighton, and they let me know that it didn't seem to strongly influence their day-to-day and that the culture overall was very welcoming. It's something I'll definitely be assessing further if I'm fortunate enough to have options at the end of the cycle.

This was also said during my info session. FWIW, as an atheist currently at Creighton for undergrad, religion has never been pushed onto me by professors/students/faculty etc. Creighton is a Catholic University, yes, but any association with religion (beyond the Jesuit Values) comes from a student choosing to do so.

Was that the best thing to say during an info session? Absolutely not. But for those concerned about it, please know that Creighton does welcome everyone with open arms 🙂
 
Anyone from 12/2 interview have their thank you message gone from the portal? Mine hasn’t

I have the same interview day and mine disappeared early this afternoon. The committee probably didn’t finish all the 12/2 decisions yet, you’ll probably hear from them next week worst case

Hey everyone!

Congrats to all of you who have received interviews or acceptances so far at Creighton during this cycle!! I'm a current M2 at Creighton Omaha and honestly could not be happier to have picked this school. The environment here is definitely one of community and collaboration, and I was surprised by how much I genuinely enjoyed my first year of medical school thanks to the awesome people at Creighton.

I know it's early to be thinking about housing during medical school, but I wanted to give a quick plug for Creighton Phi Chi Medical Fraternity, a co-ed living community that includes students from all four years of medical school. Your housemates quickly become some of your best friends and serve as excellent mentors during your first few years of school, providing insight into study resources, extracurriculars, research, and pretty much everything else that will help you succeed in medical school. Living at Phi Chi was hands down the best decision I made at Creighton, and I can't imagine how much more difficult my first year would have been had I not been surrounded by my wonderful housemates. Plus, at Phi Chi you'd get to live in a gorgeous mansion located a mere block away from Omaha's Blackstone district, and we have extremely cheap rent at $625/month (which includes all food and utilities!).

If you want to make the most out of your transition into medical school, please consider living at Phi Chi. If interested or if you have any questions, feel free to send us an email at [email protected]! The house application as well as other information can be found under the APPLY tab of our website www.creightonphichi.com. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis throughout the Spring and Summer. We look forward to hearing from you all soon!!!

Also, if you're attending the upcoming accepted student's day in November, feel free to stop by our house and learn more about why we love living here! We will likely be hosting an open house, and will be giving more info day-of at the presentations and social hour if you want to hear more.

Congrats to everyone continuing to receive interviews and starting to receive acceptances!!

Just another heads-up that we will still be taking applications for Creighton Phi Chi on a rolling basis through springtime. If you're interested in a uniquely collaborative living community during medical school out here in Omaha, feel free to take a look at our website and to email us at [email protected]! If you also find yourself in town, feel free to shoot us an email if you'd like to stop by and take a look. Won't find a better location in the city for the price and amenities. PLUS we have windows in our bedrooms (which one of the main popular places for M1s to live literally does NOT have lol)

Looking forward to hearing from some of y'all!!
 
Hey everyone, I was accepted about a month ago to Creighton and had a question about their conditions of acceptance. They said that my college degree must be completed "at a grade level similar to [my] present grade-point-average". I'm a trad applicant finishing up my last few academic terms and was wondering if anyone knew how lenient this rule is. I plan to finish strong because I want to get summa but I'm taking some harder courses next term and worried that if I get a B or something that I'll lose the acceptance. Probably over reacting lmao, but maybe someone has some helpful insight. Thanks.

I don't have any more insight than you, however, I just wanna give you some reassurance. I am sure that if you get a B, you are going to be just fine. It seems that they put that in there so that you don't just put in the bare minimum and pass with a C in the rest of your classes. Again, I am also just an applicant, but this is what it seems like to me

Just try your best, you’ve gotten good grades so far, so keep it up! If you get one B I don’t think it will impact your acceptance.

Does anyone have any advice for the interview?
Click to expand...
Just try to chill out and have a good time, it's very conversational! I found the faculty interview was more laid back, with the student interview being more structured and to the point. I read through the interview feedback page on SDN for the common questions, but honestly none of them came up in my interview. Would still be a good idea to brush up on the common questions (why us, why med, etc.) Also, try not to stress out if the interview is a bit short! I think my student interview was only 15-20 minutes haha.

Both the faculty and student interviews were the most laid-back interviews I have had so far. Just chill, be yourself, and know your application be ready to talk about some of your experiences.
 
Just thought this might help someone. If you are placed on alternate list you have to go in portal to “accept the alternate offer”. I barely found this out
 
Anyone who interviewed the week of December 9-13 hear back yet? My thank you message is still present on the portal. Hopefully we won't have to wait until next month's committee meeting...
 
I am so stressed for my interview tmrw!! Just do not know what to expect ahhh

Super chill! Just a good interview to get to know you. A few standardized questions (nothing scary) then just chat about who you are/what you like/what you're interested in. Good luck, you're gonna do great!
 
May be a dumb question - but do yall know how much weight they put in these interviews? Does it make or break you? Or is it just weighed as another part of your application? My student interview went great, very conversational and enjoyable, but faculty interview was weird. They seemed super stern and cold, and it stressed me out, felt like I didn’t do my best. Can’t stop thinking about it.

To be fair, myself and a friend also had very similar experiences. We had different faculty interviewers. I wouldn’t put a lot of weight on it, but definitely curious how it plays out. I personally am not worrying about it too much.
