Hey everyone!
Congrats to all of you who have received interviews or acceptances so far at Creighton during this cycle!! I'm a current M1 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've 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 (fun), 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!!!
I talked to those of you that made it to the Admitted Students’ Day in November, and I hope to meet more of you in March and April! We’ll likely have an open house, so you can check out the house and meet some of the current members. I will be giving more info day-of at the presentations and social hour if you want to hear more.
Also - if you have more questions about Creighton or Omaha outside of Phi Chi, I'd be happy to help! I know this is a stressful time for everyone, but you are all crushing it!
